What people love about Christmas & New Year Tours in Tunisia
- Step Back into the Millennium, Small Group Tour
Tunisia is a fantastic collection of culture, architectural sites and filled with history. I was alone on this tour adding some flexibility but also complications. I do recommend Tunisia, you won’t be disappointed.
- The Best of Tunisia & All-inclusive Beach Extension (Stay connected), Small Group Tour
While I did not take this trip due to a last minute cancellation, the customer service that I received from this company was incredible. On the week of the tour, some unforeseen circumstances led me to have to call of my trip to Tunisia entirely. I was concerned that I would not be able receive a proper refund because of the short notice, but this company did an incredible job of understanding my needs and serving me in the best way possible. They communicated with me on a Sunday, and with the right context, provided me with a response/solution that is an A+ in terms of customer service.
- From the Mainland to the Island, Small Group Tour
I just experienced a perfect vacation ! It started from the punctual pickup by the tour driver during my arrival in the airport, to great hotel accommodations, delicious meals, well organized daily tours and well versed tour guide. Same with drop off at the airport, the tour driver was very punctual. He made sure I got checked in, made it through the border control before waving me goodbye. All in all, wrapped into a whole bundle, "Excellent" customer service provided by Mr.Ali (tour driver). There never was a time that I felt unsafe during the entire stay in Tunisia. My only regret is not taking an extension stay to see more of the beautiful country.
