All Inclusive Cheap Holidays in Sousse 2012 – The oldest Medina in Tunisia

Sousse is still regarded as having probably the finest (though not the largest) old city (Medina) in comparison with the other Tunisian resorts. A warren of narrow covered alleyways nestling below the Ribat (fort) hide hundreds of colourful shops selling a myriad of local goods from carpets and porcelain to leather bags and olive oil. Outside the Medina there is also a vast modern shopping complex. Sousse holidays are not all just shopping and beach bathing, however. The town's museum, situated in the old castle or Kasbah, is renowned for its collection of mosaics, masks, statues and other relics of the Roman occupation. There are also several miles of well-preserved ancient Christian catacombs and marble tombs in the town. Cheap holidays in Sousse offer many package-tour visitors all the facilities and surroundings of a relaxing seaside holiday, overlaid with the undeniably foreign and exotic atmosphere of North Africa, all at extremely affordable prices.
