  • The ranking of tours, activities, and experiences available on Tripadvisor is determined by several factors including the revenue generated by Tripadvisor from these bookings, the frequency of user clicks, and the volume and quality of customer reviews. Occasionally, newly listed offerings may be prioritized and appear higher in the list. The specific placement of these new listings may vary.
We perform checks on reviews.
Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    I’ve wanted to do this kind of tour for years but had a fear of it being a shambles. The Tunisians certainly know how to arrange a tour, great coaches, amazing tour guides (Manny) and sights and experiences that you would pay a small fortune for in another country.

    It all started with a 6am pick up from our hotel and then a 2 hour coach journey before the stop in El Jem for the Colosseum. It’s amazing here and lots to see but not a lot to do. Be prepared for everyone asking you to buy things but a polite no is enough. Buy a drink from the last shop outside before getting back on the coach as it’s the cheapest. Another 2 hour journey before the next stop at the Troglodyte villages and traditional lunch and a visit to a 500yr old cave home. After this we made our way to Douz where the hotel is and where you get a choice of the quad bikes or camel rides or both!! I’ve always wanted to go in a quad on the Sahara desert and it’s brilliant fun, men will appear on mopeds with desert foxes for you to have pictures with so take money if you want to do this as it’s not for free. Same with the baby camel before the Troglodyte village. The only let down was the hotel overnight. It’s very basic and the food is terrible but the beer is good and the swimming pool is lovely. Bedrooms very basic but comfy.

    Day 2 was a 5AM!! Wake up and a chase to see the sunrise in the middle of the desert. Amazing. Once in a lifetime feeling and experience. Then onto Tozeur for the 4x4 drive deeper into the desert OVER the dunes to the Star Wars set. This was again a bit of a let down and basically a market. More camel pictures here and some odd trinkets to buy. Back in the 4x4’s and a race at 70mph over the sand to the Oasis tour via horse and cart. The horses here are slender beasts and they work hard. The oasis tour is very random but fun and you get to try fresh dates of course with the option to buy. Everyone had a price on these tours and it’s best to tip them if you can as it’s a very cheap tour. After this we were back on the coach for 3 hours (with toilet and drink break) to Kairouan for the largest Mosque in Tunisia and a rug shop next door. This is the obligatory shopping part and was a bit of a let down but plenty to buy and fixed prices so no bartering allowed. Last part of the journey was 2 hours back to our hotel and just in time for dinner. The driver and guide were brilliant. And all of this for £108 per Adult and 1250km covered almost reaching Algeria!! And everything included except drinks.

    Take cash and get cash when you can. Get snack if the hotel food isn’t great from the cafes you stop at but crisps are not crisps so if you see a market the day before you go then stock up. Take a big suitcase as it goes in the hold of the bus. Take lots of clothes if you want and maybe cards for the coach as there is a lot of travelling. You get time to sleep and rest and most coaches have usb charging onboard.

    Before booking Jamel, my husband and I considered several options for touring: self-directed/self-driving, pre-packaged private tour, or a customizable tour by Jamel. I am really glad we selected the third option. My reasons are:
    1. Jamel drove, making the trip more relaxing for us
    2. Jamel knew the best sites to see and for how long
    3. Jamel adapted to us – particularly my need to stop the car and take pictures of seemingly common things like camels, sheep and voting ballots.
    4. Jamel, and the people he introduced us to at various sites, shared stories of themselves, their culture, and their history. This last point is what makes Jamel the perfect tour guide.

    After touring with Jamel, I want to shout from the roof tops to all intrepid travelers, “Come, meet the amazing people of Tunisia. Their history is deep, their hearts are broad and the countryside expansive.”

    I'm usually very nervous for this sort of thing and tend to stay in or around my hotel but I'm delighted I didn't!

    I felt very safe, everything was clearly well organised, and all the people I met were very friendly.

    The views were incredible and the authenticity was something I've never experienced before.

    Highly recommend!
