My guide Nadhmi was excellent, not only professional and friendly. No question was left unanswered. I was alone and found out so much about Tunisian history let alone El jem. Took amazing photos for me. I was never rushed and he showed me every area. A genuine good man. Thankyou

Our guide picked us up and even brought a booster seat for my daughter which was great! He took us all the way to the amphitheater and gave us facts about El Jem, Sousse and Tunisia on the way! He then guided us around the amphitheater itself and told us the history in great detail! A great guide and extremely safe the whole time! I would recommend to anyone

Really enjoyable tour and good value for money. Plenty of time to look around. Highly recommend. Comfortable vehicle.

The driver picked us up and another couple that we didn't know and we were all squashed together into a small car. This was very uncomfortable for what was a two hour round trip. My partner and I are both in our 70s and the other couple were around 60, so comfort is a big issue. El Gem was impressive and the driver gave some info, but could have been better.

Thank you for your opinion that will help us to improve. Glad you liked the Eljem amphitheater. Sorry that your way to Eljem was not very comfortable, it was the last days of the year and we could not find a large car. The car we used is a Volkswagen Troc supposed to take 4 people. Sorry again for the dissatisfaction

I had a great time visiting El Jem. Nadhmi was the perfect tour guide - he was very educated on the history, knew all of the best spots for pictures, and I felt completely safe which was very important to me as a solo female traveller. Would really recommend this tour

Nice tour, guide was very knowledgeable and offered a lot of information and answered our questions. Nice car, great communication and we even stopped for coffee on the way back! Great half day tour!

A really great morning visiting the incredible colosseum and museum of El Jem.
Very comfortable drive and knowledgeable guide Nadhmi who took me to all the best photo shots..
Highly recommend!

Nadhmi was extremely professional and provided good counsel when we needed it. During the tour of the sites we visited in El Jem, he did a great job explaining everything to us, he is very knowledgeable. But I think what topped things up for me was the ice-cream he recommended! Yum! I will highly recommend his service.
As a side note (NOTHING TO DO WITH NADHMI’S TOUR) I uploaded a picture of the camel for other tourists. It belongs to some random people in the street. it’s okay to take pictures with it, the owner will encourage you to climb on it for a photo, don’t be fooled, if you do, they will force you to take a ride and pay I gave them 5 Tunisian dirhams - Be warned.
Back to my review. Nadhmi, thanks for making me have a great time with your 5* service. I enjoyed it

Nadhmi was punctual, and a good driver and guide, with good knowledge of the history.
Cheaper than a taxi both ways!

Nadhmi is truly first class guide and local!!! He lead us through the entire collisseum ensuring we made the most of our experience

This is not a tour but the only driver to El Jam. The Driver brings to the amphitheater of El Jem and after to brings to the hotel.

Nous avions commandé une excursion avec guide à l’amphithéâtre el jem dans une voiture climatisée.
Au final nous avons payé 85€ pour une voiture sale non climatisée ( 42 degrés au soleil)avec un chauffeur qui nous a mis de la musique religieuse sur le chemin sans nous demander notre avis.
Aucun guide comme prévu pour la visite de l’amphithéâtre !!
Le site est magnifique mais aucunes indications et informations sans guide ! C’est une visite de pierres !!!!
Juste pour info, un aller retour Sousse - El Jem , se négocie à 30€ en taxi !!!
Je vais faire une réclamation à Viator car c’est vraiment honteux.
