The Medina of Tunis, heritage of UNESCO, offers visitors monuments and sights out of the ordinary.

The inscribed property covers an area of approximately 280 ha and comprises all the features of an Arabo-Muslim city. It is composed of the central medina (8th c) and suburbs to the North and South (13th c). There are some 700 historic monuments, distributed in 7 areas, among which the most remarkable are the Zitouna Mosque, the Kasbah Mosque, the Youssef Dey Mosque, Bab Jedid Gate, Bab Bhar Gate, the Souq el-Attarine, Souq ech-Chaouachia, the Tourbet el Bey, noble houses such as Dar Lasram, Dar El Medina, the Madrasa Es- Slimanya, the El Attarine military barracks and the Zaouia of Sidi Ben Arous.

With its suks, its urban fabric, its residential quarters, monuments and gates, this ensemble constitutes a prototype among the best conserved in the Islamic world.

Medina de Túnez maravillosa gracias a Saber

Una maravilla de visita, sobre todo por Saber, el guía local. Una persona muy afable, con un gran conocimiento y dominio perfecto del idioma. Muy recomendable

Saber, the must-do guide in town!

Saber is a very welcoming guide from the very first moment. His organisation for the meeting point was very good. He’s very friendly, professional and he knows everything about Tunisia. He explained us a lot Of interesting things about the Medina, its history, its development, its structure and much more. His Italian is perfect and his Spanish as well. He is well-known in the Medina, everyone said hi to him. He didn’t trick us into some designs shop (as many guides worldwide do) but he was discrete at giving us many suggestions. If you visit Tunisi, you can’t skip a visit with Saber!

Visite Guidée de la Médina

Merci à Saber pour cette visite guidée. Excellent contact et passionnant d'avoir des explications sur la médina ! J'aurais rajouté cependant à la visite la découverte d'une mosquée à l'intérieur et des notions sur la religion musulmane pour davantage de compréhension.

Saber sa tutto!

Fantastica percorso nella medina tra lo storico e l’aneddotico. Saber, molto preparato, ha ben contestualizzato la storia di Tunisi e ci ha portato a conoscere luoghi non sempre disponibili all’occhio del viaggiatore. Il tempo è passato velocemente e la compagnia è stata piacevole. Grazie ancora Saber!

Splendida visita della Kasbah di Tunisi con Saber

Saber è una guida qualificata e molto preparata. La visita guidata della Kasbah di Tunisi è stata incredibilmente interessante e mai noiosa. Consiglio a tutti una passeggiata insieme a Saber.
