Açıklama

Discover the ancient town of Dougga on a full-day private trip from Tunis or Hammamet. Visit the archaeological site of Aïn Tounga and see the Grand Mosque of Testour.
Visit two UNESCO-listed archaeological sites in Tunisia during this full-day private excursion to Dougga and Ain Tounga. Learn about Phoenician and Roman settlements in ancient times. Visit well-preserved buildings and roads, enjoying panoramic views. Admission tickets and comfortable, door-to-door vehicle transfers from Tunis or Hammamet are included.

Start your day with a visit to the extensive ruins of a Roman town set on a hilltop, overlooking surrounding valleys with olive plantations. The road to Dougga passes through beautiful rural and scenic landscape. Unlike Roman ruins in Carthage or even in European towns where one or two remaining monuments are isolated in the middle of a modern city, at Dougga, the entire town is preserved, even the Roman streets.

Without the barriers and the flocks of tourists, take your time to climb in and out of houses and tunnels, temples, and the theaters. As with other sites in Tunis, Dougga's history is not limited to only the Roman period. Find an old Punic temple here with a cleansing bath and walls from the Phoenician period, which was later transformed and reused by the Romans, and thus has Roman pillars.

There is also an obvious funerary monument, the Mausoleum of Ateban, dating to 2nd century BC, one of three examples of royal Numidian architecture. Its inscription is housed in the British Museum, and the Punic-Libyan bilingual inscription was used to translate Libyan script.

Next, visit the archaeological site of Aïn Tounga. Halfway between Testour and Dougga, see at the edge of the road a large square tower in ruins. This is the entrance to a remarkable archaeological site, Aïn Tounga.

The Aïn Tounga site stretches along the hillside in a beautiful landscape of fields and olive groves.
