The morning light hits the white-and-blue facades of Sidi Bou Said before the coach pulls away, and the city opens like a map under a bright Mediterranean sky.

The day moves from the layered stone of Carthage to the labyrinthine alleys of Tunis’ Medina, each stop revealing a different pace of history.
