Hammamet: Kairouan & Eljem with lunch

Dive into the heart of Tunisian history! Check out the spirituality of Kairouan and the huge Roman amphitheater of El Jem, two UNESCO gems.
Get off the beaten track and take a trip back in time, where Tunisia's history echoes through ancient stones and calls to prayer. This one-of-a-kind tour gives you a day of spirituality and Roman grandeur, from the ochre walls of the first Maghreb capital to the colossal shadow of Africa's largest amphitheater.

Morning: Kairouan, the Holy City at the Gates of the Desert

Your day kicks off with a visit to Kairouan, the fourth holiest city in Islam and a spiritual gem of Tunisia. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it wraps you in a peaceful and mystical vibe.

· The Great Mosque of Sidi Oqba: Step under the huge wooden door to enter one of the oldest mosques in the world. Let yourself be surprised by the serenity of its marble-paved courtyard, framed by majestic arches, and contemplate its minaret that has dominated the city since the 7th century. A moment of pure tranquility.
· The Medina and its Hidden Treasures: Lose yourself in the maze of ochre alleys of the old town, where the authentic art of living still reigns supreme. Here, time seems to have stopped. Check out the famous Kairouan carpets, known worldwide for their fine stitching and rich geometric patterns. An ancestral know-how that's been passed down from generation to generation.
· The Aghlabid Basins: Check out these awesome 9th-century reservoirs, real masterpieces of hydraulic engineering that used to supply the city with water. Their reflection in the calm water, especially at the end of the day, is a really beautiful sight.
Lunch: A Gourmet Break with Authentic Flavors
Afternoon: El Jem, the Colossus of the Roman Empire
Leave the Islamic era for a spectacular leap into Roman antiquity. Head to El Jem (the ancient Thysdrus), where one of Africa's most iconic monuments stands.

· The Amphitheatre of El Jem: Get ready to be amazed! This stone giant, the third largest in the Roman world after the Colosseum in Rome and the one in Capua, stands in the middle of the modern city. Its imposing, almost untouched silhouette is a sight to behold.
· Climb the Gladiator Track: Head up the tiers and picture 35,000 Roman spectators cheering on the gladiator fights. Explore behind the scenes: head down into the dark underground where lions and fighters were waiting for their turn. The power of history is palpable with every step.
· A Cinematic Setting: The Tunisian sunlight dances with the arches and ochre stones, creating a perfect play of light and shadow for absolutely stunning photos. This amphitheater is a total movie star, having been used as a backdrop for films.
· A Striking Contrast: Experience two powerful and complementary experiences in one day: the spiritual fervor of Kairouan and the spectacular power of Rome.
