Dougga, two hours from Tunis, is a whole hillside town with theatre, Capitol and a rare pre-Roman mausoleum among olive groves. Bulla Regia is famous for houses built partly underground, with mosaics still on their floors. Carthage is fragmentary but has the Antonine Baths and the Punic ports, an easy TGM ride from Tunis. Kerkouane on Cape Bon is the one Punic town never rebuilt by Rome. Dougga and Bulla Regia pair well in one long day; go in spring or autumn.
