To the west of Tunis lies Sousse, an ancient Punic city bathed by the waters of the Mediterranean Sea and the Gulf of Hammamet. Its walled medina, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has a maze of exceptionally beautiful alleys and passages, just a few metres from beaches with turquoise waters. These are just some of the unique places you can discover from a hotel in Tunisia.

Exploring the peaceful city, getting lost in its souks and enjoying the traditional Arabic architecture will take you back through centuries of time. Of the eight doors that gave people access to the fortress, you can still visit the Kairouan and Bab El Gharbi. The majestic and solemn Great Mosque of Sousse, and its Kasbah, are among the other points of interest in the Pearl of the Sahel. No stroll through the medina would be complete without a visit to the archaeological museum to admire its extraordinarily beautiful collection of mosaics and sculptures.
