Tunisia Odyssey Chronicle

Bicycle Africa / Ibike Tours

  
 

These accounts from bicycle tours illustrate the complex mélange of Tunisia's modern infrastructure and traditional culture and values. Tunisia has layer upon layer of cultural heritage and history (as demonstrated by its World Heritage Sites from Phoenician, Roman, Arab, and Turkish periods). The architecture reflect a millennium of traditions from around the Mediterranean, the markets are colorful and filled with wonderful produce, spices and goods, the crafts, decorative arts and carpets are stunning, and the countryside is beautiful.

If this intrigues you, please read on.  We hope you enjoy the journal.

Note: The photo-essay contains only selected observations, and is not intended to be a comprehensive report of all discussions, meetings and events on the program.
