What to expect

  1. Kairouan
    1h
    Founded in 670, the city of Kairouan flourished under the Ahlabid dynasty in the 9th century. Despite the transfer of the political capital to Tunis in the 12th century, Kairouan remained the first holy city in the Maghreb. Its rich architectural heritage notably includes the Great Mosque, with its columns of marble and porphyry, and the Three-door mosque which dates from the 9th century.
  2. El-Jem
    2h
    The Colosseum of El Jem is quite simply the 3rd largest amphitheater in the Roman world after those of Rome and Capua, and perhaps the best preserved. Indeed, his visit amazes with its architecture and the genius developed for its construction. The site is logically classified as UNESCO World Heritage since 1979.
