Kairouan Governorate tour packages centre on the fourth holiest city in Islam, founded in 670 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Great Mosque of Kairouan is the oldest place of worship in North Africa and the model for later mosques, with a massive minaret and a forest of ancient columns. The medina is full of carpet-makers and craft stalls, and the Aghlabid Basins were built to store water. Pilgrims come throughout the year, and visitors should dress modestly. Spring and autumn are the best seasons to visit.

March to May and September to November
Arabic, with French widely spoken
Tunisian Dinar (TND)
Visa required (apply at the Tunisian embassy before travel)
March to May and September to November are best. Summer is very hot, as the city lies inland on a dry plain.
One day covers the Great Mosque and medina, and an overnight stay lets you see the city in the evening light.
Kairouan is about 160 km south of Tunis, roughly two hours by road. It is also an easy day trip from Sousse.
