Tunis

Arab hospitality awaits you in exotic Tunis, on the coast of North Africa; a unique city, rich in historical and archeological relics recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage.

Tunis, capital of Tunisia, actually consist in three cities: the Modern Capital of the Tunisian Republic, with its wide streets, skyscrapers and bustling cafes; the Arab Medina  (Old City), a fascinating medieval maze full of secrets, narrow alleys with small shops, big mosques and buildings, and finally, Carthage, the ancient Phoenician-Roman centre, located 18 km from the city.

Visit the Baths of Antoninus and the Bardo Museum, which is not only the most important museum in Tunisia, but also one of the oldest in the Arab world, where you can admire ancient artifacts, statues, and the richest collection of Roman mosaics in the world. A day trip to the fishing village of Sidi Bou Said includes the possibility to visit a typical house turned into a museum. A vacation in Tunis is not complete without experiencing the Medina-the typical market: you are sure to pick up a beautiful souvenir of your stay here.

Athens

Many still think of Athens as an ancient city that thrived two and a half thousand years ago. Its symbol is the mighty Acropolis, which dominates almost every view and the itinerary of every visitor, and it is crowned by the iconic Parthenon, which rises above the city, overlooking the sprawling and evolving modern metropolis.

Its symbol is the mighty Acropolis, which dominates almost every view and the itinerary of every visitor, and it is crowned by the iconic Parthenon, which rises above the city, overlooking the sprawling and evolving modern metropolis.

Perhaps the most significant change is in the historical centre, which is almost unrecognisable since cars have been banned. This has liberated the area with the most significant archaeological sites, creating the longest, and undoubtedly one of the most splendid, pedestrianised zones in Europe. This huge archaeological park has brought past and present together, returning the cultural and social life of the city to the area around the ancient monuments and surrounding neighbourhoods.

Athens remains a city of contradictions; it is both frustrating and seductive. It is the oldest city in Europe, yet still in a state of transition. It is one of the safest and most vibrant European cities - an intoxicating mix of grunge and grace with an undeniably urban soul.
