Explore the vibrant heart of Tunis with Barclay's Group Travel as they take you through the lively Medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site that invites history and culture lovers. Enter into an environment where narrow streets are full of activities and every turn brings out the best in local craftsmen and chefs.

The Medina of Tunis is a maze that dates back to the 9th century filled with souks (markets), mosques, and historical landmarks each whispering of Tunisia’s rich past. The streets are like a labyrinth leading you to artists who specialise in expert pottery art and jewelry making as well as compelling fabrics for clothing and leather ware. Spend some time understanding what these skilled craftsmen do to help their families learn about this ancient occupation.

Within all this noise, there is no other place where the senses can be aroused than in Medina. The smell of unusual spices pervades everything around making you want to taste traditional Tunisian foods prepared by nearby restaurants hidden away from public view. Enjoy delicious meals including couscous, brik (a type of pastry) plus sweet pastries which have been influenced by various culinary traditions in the country.

Your journey through time will continue when you pass through Al-Zaytuna Quarter known for its cultural importance and busy life.

You can bargain your way out with traders or even go shopping for mementos among other things or just follow the UNESCO protected enclave’s passionate atmosphere.
