Itinerary
With its white sand beaches and its sapphire sea, its medieval monuments and its charming marina, Monastir offers one of the most attractive faces of Tunisia. An ideal destination for sunbathing by the water, but also for visiting an exciting region: from Sousse to Kairouan, from El Jem to Mahdia, you will travel through history. In the countryside, you will get to know the life of Bedouin villages. And along the coast, the fishing ports will enchant you.
It is the Roman monument of North Africa, by far the most imposing, its round and massive silhouette rises in a flat and desert plain which lets it be seen from a very long distance, and this, all the more easily as the locality that has developed around the building has avoided tall buildings. It is also one of the best-preserved works of its kind, despite the many vicissitudes it has gone through over time, in particular the severe cannon ball bombardment it suffered at the end of the 17th century to dislodge a rebellious tribe who had entrenched themselves there, which caused a large breach in the side of the building
Sousse, nicknamed "The Pearl of the Sahel", is a Tunisian coastal city famous for its beaches, its historic medina listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its marina, Port El Kantaoui. It is an important tourist center offering a rich combination of culture, history and leisure.

About Tunis
Tunis is the capital of Tunisia, a Mediterranean city of a walled medina, Roman mosaics, ancient Carthage and the blue-and-white village of Sidi Bou Said.
Tunis grew around its medina, a World Heritage maze of vaulted lanes, mosques, palaces and souks that spreads from the Zitouna Mosque. The souks specialise: perfumes, gold, leather and the red felt caps called chechia each have their own alleys. The medina is entered through Bab el Bhar, the French Gate, from the broad Avenue Habib Bourguiba, which has French colonial buildings and cafés and runs to the cathedral of St Vincent de Paul.
