Tunisia - Oasis Highlights

There are so many highlights in this fascinating country that it is impossible to list them all here. Our travel consultants will discuss your interests and be able to put a specific itinerary together for you, but below are a few must seeā€™s!

Carthage

Carthage is built one of the most beautiful sites in the Mediterranean. Be fascinated by the bayā€™s turquoise reflections, white houses encircled by cypress trees, and in the distant, the silhouette of Mount Boukornine, immovable in the haze. Discover fragments of history in the streets of modern Carthage, and pause among the remains of Saint Cyprienā€™s basilica overlooking the sea. Admire the Carthaginian houses in the Magon quarter and over the Punic ports where serenity reigns.

 

Touzeur

Tozeur emerges from the desert, nestled against a vast oasis of hundreds of palm trees. It surprises, fascinates and plunges into the scenery only a few hours from Europe. The great south’s burning light pours into the city’s avenues. She wends her way through the narrow alleys of the old neighbourhoods and, between the high facades of blond bricks, gives the appearance of the ochre colour of the desert.

 

Tunis

Tunis is an exciting mix of new and old, including French colonial buildings. The souq and the medina are among the most authentic and hassle-free in North Africa. On the northern coast, between the west and eastern basins of the Mediterranean Sea, Tunis resides on the Lake of Tunis, an inlet of the Gulf of the same name, and is linked with its bustling port, įø¤alq al-WādÄ«, ten kilometres to the northeast.
