Summary:
Dougga was so unexpected but such an phenomenonal piece of Roman history. Well preserved & not over tourists, a must see for any Mediterranean history buff. Our guide Noureddine also took us to Testour to see the local way of life. Finally he made a small detour to take us to the Commonwealth War Cemetery in Medjez el Beb so we could visit the grave of a relative buried there from WW2. An emotional highlight to pay our respects. Thank you Noureddine for all your Roman knowledge & for being such a gentleman.
