From Tunis, it's on to the medina and mosque of Sousse, where Phoenicians, Romans, Byzantines, and Arabs who settled in this city have left their mark. Then head to the old town of Monastir and impressive El Djem, a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring the remains of a 3rd-century Roman Colosseum that originally seated 30,000.
