An air of faded glamour gives Dar Sebastién in Hammamet its mystique. This cool and elegant villa is one of the town's true treasures. And you'll visit the magnificent medieval medina. Aziz, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The old town dates back to the 15th century, and it's one of the best-preserved examples of a traditional North African medina. It's still inhabited by many local families which gives it an authentic air, and life here is mostly unchanged across the centuries – apart from motorised scooters, which have replaced the donkeys of yesteryear.' You'll be picked up and taken to the leafy suburbs of southern Hammamet. Here, is the whitewashed Dar Sebastién. Built by Romanian playboy George Sebastian in the Roaring Twenties, the airy marble halls and the colonnaded swimming pool were the epicentres of parties attended by the likes of Paul Klee, Wallis Simpson and Coco Chanel.
