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. 

Aicha is a wonderful guide. Not only did she have great insight into the history and culture of Tunisia, she is also a fun, warm person who you want to spend time with! The tour with her was so exceptional that I worry every other guide will fall far short. 

We traveled with Aicha for 11 days in December/January 14-15. You can tell she's been doing this for years -- everywhere you go, people smile and wave. She's one of the few female tour guides in the country. She can tell you as much (or as little) as you want to know about ruins but really knows her stuff when it comes to culture, politics, food, shopping, and getting around. One of my favorite times is when a local weaver was trying to add to the price of something and she scolded him about trying to take advantage of a tourist. She is uber patient too and takes you to places not in any guide book.
