After the museum, head to the Medina of Tunis to experience the city's vibrant culture and shop for souvenirs. Be sure to check out the Zitouna Mosque, a stunning example of Islamic architecture.
Visit the ancient city of Carthage, which was once one of the most influential cities in the Mediterranean. Be sure to stop at the Carthage Museum and explore the ruins of the ancient city. After Carthage, head to Sidi Bou Said, a picturesque village known for its blue and white buildings, stunning views of the Mediterranean, and vibrant art scene.
Explore the lively seaside town of La Marsa and soak up the Mediterranean sun at one of the town's beautiful beaches. Finish the trip by driving along the Tunisian coast and taking in the stunning views of the sea and countryside.
Most of the sights on this itinerary are accessible by car. Alternatively, you can use taxis or public transportation to get around. Expect to spend around 30 TND per day on transportation.
If you have more time, consider taking a day trip to Dougga, a well-preserved ancient Roman city in the countryside. If you have less time, consider skipping La Marsa and the Tunisian Coast and spending more time exploring Tunis and Carthage.
