Half Day Private Excursion Sousse medina Kantaoui and Hergla

Sousse Kantaoui Hergla Tour: Culture, Coast & Hidden Gems

Experience Tunisia’s coastal diversity on this Sousse Kantaoui Hergla Tour, blending UNESCO heritage, marina elegance, and village tranquility. In just half a day, explore Sousse’s medieval Medina, Port El Kantaoui’s yacht-lined shores, and Hergla’s unspoiled charm—all guided by local experts.

1. Explore Sousse’s UNESCO Medina

Begin in the Sousse Medina, a 9th-century UNESCO World Heritage Site. Navigate narrow alleys alive with spice stalls, pottery workshops, and textile souks. Visit the Ribat, a fortress-monastery offering panoramic city and sea views. The Grand Mosque’s sandstone arches and minimalist design reveal early Islamic architectural principles.

2. Port El Kantaoui: Coastal Elegance

Next, drive to Port El Kantaoui, a 1970s-built marina resembling a Tunisian village. Stroll past luxury yachts, sip mint tea at a seaside café, or watch artisans craft silver jewelry. For thrill-seekers, optional water sports like jet skiing or parasailing add adrenaline to relaxation.

3. Hergla: Authentic Coastal Serenity

Conclude in Hergla, a whitewashed fishing village untouched by mass tourism. Walk quiet beaches where fishermen mend nets, or explore blue-shuttered houses adorned with bougainvillea. Learn about Hergla’s ancient glass-blowing traditions and its role in Tunisia’s salt trade history.

Why This Tour Stands Out

• UNESCO + Modern Contrast: Sousse Medina with El Kantaoui’s modern resort charm.
• Guided Insights: Guides decode hidden stories—like the Ribat’s role in coastal defense or Hergla’s Phoenician roots.
• Flexible Pace: Ample time for photos, shopping, or spontaneous discoveries.
• Local Encounters: Meet Medina artisans, marina café owners, and Hergla fishermen.
