Heading inland on subsequent days, the group visits Dougga's largely intact Roman theatre and streets, then Uthina’s amphitheatre and mosaic-lined baths. A highlight is El Djem, where the scale of the Roman amphitheatre is surprisingly vast, with corridors and animal enclosures still accessible. Coastal towns like Mahdia and Sousse add variety, while Kairouan’s Great Mosque and medina introduce Islamic heritage.
Back in Tunis, a morning medina walk precedes the Bardo National Museum, noted for its extensive mosaics. Hotels vary from sea-front relaxation early on to city-centre lodgings later, and the programme allows for swimming or time at the beach where the breeze tempers the summer heat.
