Tunisia has much to offer those looking for a destination rich in history and culture, as well as some relaxation in a fine hotel. Behind its glorious coast lie the remains of Roman cities, Islamic architecture and Berber villages. This stay at a coastal hotel near the well-located town of Sousse combines an introduction to Tunisia’s Cathaginian, Roman and Arab heritage with time to relax or undertake independent exploration.
The old town of Sousse displays traces of its history with its fortified Ribat and medina walls. Islamic heritage is best revealed in Kairouan, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Roman Heritage is explored in El Djem, the Empire’s biggest colosseum, as well as the mosaics of the Bardo, Carthage and El Djem. A highlight of this arrangement is the remains of Carthage and a visit to the famous Bardo Museum in Tunis, pausing in the attractive village of Sidi Bou Said.
VJV Special Event - The Ribat of Sousse
A lecture on Tunisia’s history from a university professor in Sousse’s Ribat, one of Tunisia’s most famous and best preserved monastic fortresses. A Tunisian soft drink is included.
