About Tour Guide Ahmed R.
Holder of a Bachelor's of English Language and Literature, I had many professional experiences in Tourism industry before I
was certified as an official tour guide by the Tunisian Ministry of Tourism in 2011.
During the past decade, my freelance activities have led me from one fascinating experience to the next — from working as a translator and guide to hosting official guests of the Tunisian government like foreign ministers, MP's and corporate leaders . I accumulated a very good knowledge of Mediterranean history and culture, but above all exceptional communication skills and a pleasure to share my knowledge and my passion for history.
My areas of expertise include cultural history, art, architecture, archaeology, culinary arts and photography. I speak English, French, Italian and Arabic.
I take guests to undiscovered neighborhoods, historical areas, streets, restaurants and brings them along on a treasure hunt of local food , art and music in Tunis. I am a lover of painting, music and architecture and frequently attend music festivals and cultural events.
