One of our best private tours ever.  Aicha and her driver made our day a really memorable one. Bardo Museum, Tunis Medina, Carthage and Sidi Bou Saïd would have each been worth a longer visit, but Aicha made the most of our limited time. This tour is highly recommended who  wants to get a taste of Tunisia's capital and its surroundings - great places sadly almost unknown to Europeans and Americans.

Aicha is a miracle worker with both the knowledge and work ethic to make everything go well.  She hired a great driver,  Lassad, who spent hours every day driving us around, even though it was Ramadan.  We had a problem with our hotel and both Aicha and Lassad worked hard to get us into a much better hotel and they helped us to get a refund from our original hotel.

An example of how much they went out of their way for us was on our last day, when we had a Ramadan dinner with some family friends that lived in a town over two hours away.  Lassad wound up driving us back late in the night, which isn't a safe time to be on the road in Tunisia.  He did great and he avoided some hairy situations due to his skill and knowledge.  We were well taken care of.

This kind of service is far above the norm for Tunisia, which I'm sorry to have to state.  You can't go wrong with Aicha or Lassad.

I do recommend tipping the driver each day, no matter who you hire.  What you give them goes a long way.

I did 2 half day tours in Tunis/Carthage and one full day trip to Testour and Dougga with Aicha.  She was fun to spend time with and took lots of photos for me.  She organised car hire with a good driver and made sure I always had water and snacks.  She knows a lot about the ancient history of Tunisia and I really enjoyed the whole experience.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience hiring Aicha Boukari as our tour guide during our stay in Tunis in July, 2016. Aicha is knowledgeable, flexible, resourceful, and fun to spend time with.

We had stayed with extended family near the beach and toured some sites, including some in Carthage on our own, but wanted to have the experience of a guide to more fully understand what we were seeing. At that point we only had two days left on our trip. Our plan was for further touring of Carthage and to see the Tunis medina on the first day and to see the ruins of Dougga on the second. Aicha did a terrific job: she arranged transportation for us by taxi around all the Carthage ruins, explained the historical and political background of the various sites and pointed out many things we had missed in our earlier tour of the Carthage Museum. We followed our Carthage tour with a taxi ride to the Tunis medina, which we had not seen before. Aicha showed us all the facets of the medina beyond the tourist area, explained Tunisian customs behind the various items for sale, found a wonderful restaurant in the medina for lunch, even pursuaded a construction worker to allow us inside a renovation they were doing to one of the old houses in the medina. When taxis were scare, she accompanied us on a bus back to our hotel.

The next day, she gamely met us at 6:30 a.m. at our hotel for a day trip to Dougga. At her suggestion, we stopped by the small town of Testour, which turned out to be one of the highlights of our day -- with its beautiful and historic mosque, round loaves of bread fresh from the oven and interesting scenes of life on the main street of the small town. Dougga was fascinating (and hot!). Thanks to our well informed guide, Aicha, we saw all the highlights of the ruins -- enough to satisfy my history buff husband, which is a tall order. Aicha's crowning accomplishment though was assisting us in getting to an obscure WWII battlefield (Longstop Hill) that my husband wanted very badly to see near Medjez El Bab. Aicha communicated with the police and local folks in a nearby village – and found us the dirt road to the top of the mountain, then helped the driver scout the difficult path back down to the valley. If we are able to visit Tunisia again some day, we will certainly look for her as a guide. Susan and Wayne Purdom

My husband and I traveled in Tunisia for 12 days in March with Aicha. The breath and depth of her knowledge of Tunisian history and culture is astounding. My husband was in the Peace Corp in Tunisia during the 1960s. Aicha found a former colleague and friend and made arrangements for us to visit with them. She arranged visits to the schools where he used to teach. This made the trip even more meaningful for us. In addition to Aicha's extensive knowledge of her country she has a wonderful sense of humor, and is a lot of fun to be with. Aicha knew so many people where we traveled and because of her relationship with them she was able to access places that were closed. She was tireless in her efforts to accommodate our every need and want. She also knows where all the good Tunisian food is located and has a sweet tooth! As my husband said when we returned home, "Our trip would have been nothing without Aicha." Not only did we have the very best tour guide, Aicha became a new friend with whom I remain in contact. I highly recommend Aicha as a guide and strongly encourage travel in Tunisia.
