🕌 “Secrets of the Medina – A Journey Through the Heart of Tunis” 🧭
Step into the labyrinth of the Medina of Tunis, where every narrow alley hides a story and every archway echoes with centuries of history. Join me on a journey where the past is alive, the colors are vibrant, and the scent of spices fills the air. This isn’t just a tour — it’s a time-traveling experience into the soul of Tunisia.
We begin at Bab El Bhar (the Sea Gate), the symbolic entrance to the old city. From there, we dive into the maze of winding streets and hidden gems:
✨ The majestic Zitouna Mosque, the spiritual heart of the Medina
🧵 Traditional souks (markets) where artisans still craft perfumes, leather, copper, and textiles by hand
📚 Stories of scholars, sultans, revolutionaries, and everyday Tunisians that bring these walls to life
We’ll finish near the Kasbah Square, where old meets new and you’ll have a perfect view to reflect on the journey — or continue exploring on your own with my personal recommendations for food, tea, and local crafts.
Why is this tour different? Because I’m not just showing you places — I’m sharing memories, mysteries, and moments that you won’t find in a guidebook. My passion is helping travelers feel the magic of the Medina as locals do.
