Home to the legendary Hannibal and capital of one of the ancient world’s greatest empires, Carthage once vied with Rome for control of the Mediterranean. Three titanic struggles between these mighty empires ultimately laid Carthage low and led to the transformation of what is now modern Tunisia into one of the wealthiest provinces of the Roman Empire. Then, as the ancient world entered its twilight years, the armies of Arabia arrived bringing a new, vibrant and exotic culture to North Africa. Carthage and Roman Africa is a privately chauffeured and guided tour that will explore a scenic land swathed in olive trees and discover a country that combines easy ways with oriental exoticism. Showcasing some of the most spectacular cultural treasures of the Mediterranean; Classical highlights will include Dougga’s stunning remains, El Djem’s virtually complete amphitheatre, and the magnificent mosaics in the Bardo Museum. The ancient world is combined with walks through the intoxicating streets of the walled medieval medinas of Tunis and holy Kairouan – Islam’s fourth holiest site – and a day to relax by the sea in the UNESCO World Heritage town of Sousse.
