Tunisia through the eyes of a local

Reviewed April 7, 2014

My husband and I, in our 60's, had a fabulous tour with Aicha. Many times I said, "we would never have this experience, see this, do that" on our own. She is incredibly knowledgeable, sincere, and educated about her culture. 3 years later, I often say, that is the best trip we ever took..and we are well travelled. The reason it was the best trip is because of Aicha and the fascinating culture of Tunisia that Aicha brought alive for us. Suzanne and Bill Lyons Boston, MA

Aicha was our trip leader when we toured Tunisia in 2011 with Overseas Adventure Travel. She was wonderful in every way ... charming, friendly, thoughtful and very knowledgeable about the culture, history and politics of Tunisia. It was obvious that she loves her country and she made us love it too. We could not possibly have had a better guide. OAT is known for providing their travelers with the best trip leaders that a country has to offer and Aicha ranked as one of the best that we've had on our many trips with O.A.T. ( 16 trips so far ... and counting). She was attentive and took note of things that we mentioned. She found out that most of our group loved ice cream, especially banana splits ,which is not a common dish in Tunisia. She managed to have the chef at our farewell dinner serve us banana splits for dessert. It was a great surprise that we all enjoyed ... a small thing but an example of her attention to detail. We had the opportunity to visit Aicha's family in their apartment. She and her mother taught us how to make Brik and we cooked and ate and laughed together. This was the kind of warm and personal experience that makes a trip to a foreign country special. Thank you Aicha! We LOVED Tiunisia and YOU!
