Our team will pick you up from the lobby of your hotel in Hammamet to ensure a comfortable and punctual start to your tour. After a pleasant drive along the highway, you will arrive in El Jem, one of the country’s archaeological treasures.

Upon arrival, you will be accompanied to purchase your admission tickets before starting your guided tour of the famous Roman amphitheatre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site (admission tickets included).
This stone colossus, the third-largest amphitheatre in the Roman world, will impress you with its gigantic proportions and its exceptionally well-preserved condition.

Accompanied by your enthusiastic guide, you’ll immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Ancient Rome during the era of Thysdrus, the thriving ancient Roman city that once stood here. Explore the dizzying tiers (where up to 35,000 spectators would sit to watch the fights), the galleries, and the impressive underground areas where gladiators and wild beasts would wait. Let the vivid stories and historical anecdotes that bring these ancient stones to life transport you.

Your ticket also gives you access to the El Jem Archaeological Museum, located just a short walk from the amphitheatre. This intimate museum houses a rich collection of remarkably intricate Roman mosaics, as well as objects from everyday life, statues, and artefacts discovered in the region. The tour will give you a deeper understanding of the everyday life, beliefs, and way of life of the inhabitants of Thysdrus.

A rewarding cultural immersion in just half a day, perfect for those with an interest in history, heritage, and authentic discoveries!
