Pro tips to help you make a pick

The "Secret" Southern Entrance: Most tourists use the main gate near the Mellah, but entering via Riad Zitoun el Jdid street can sometimes lead to a less-crowded entry experience that places you closer to the Grand Courtyard.

We had a great first tour of the main sites with our guide Rachid. I really appreciated his clear explanations about the different sites and the Medina. It was really nice not having to wait in line to buy admission tickets to the sites. I wasn’t as keen on the stop at the cosmetics and spice shop (hence the 4-star rating).
