Zaghouan Day Trip Itinerary

The trip starts at 8 am with a hotel pickup in Tunis. After a thirty-minute drive, the first stop is the Roman aqueduct of Zaghouan.

In the second century, under Emperor Hadrian, the Roman Empire built an aqueduct connecting a water source at Zaghouan with the ancient city of Carthage to address water supply issues. Much of the aqueduct remains today, allowing exploration of this engineering masterpiece, while your guide explains its construction and design.

Next, you'll visit the Roman Water Temple located on the outskirts of modern Zaghouan, also constructed under Emperor Hadrian. Your guide will discuss the importance of this sacred spring and its veneration in ancient times.

Following the Water Temple tour, a traditional meal featuring Turkish specialties will be served at a restaurant in central Zaghouan, blending Mediterranean and Arab cuisines.

You will return to Tunis after your meal, arriving at your hotel around 5 pm.
