Savaii is actually a little bigger than Upolu and offers their visitors a true insight into the traditional Samoan way of life. It is also here the nation’s highest peak, Mt Silisili rises 1866 metres and at Cape Mulinuu you can stand at the last place on earth and view the final sunset of every day.

The San Antonio Zoo spans 35 acres and is home to over 3,500 animals representing 750 species from around the globe.

Hippos, crocodiles, and colorful African cichlids from Lakes Tanganyika and Malawi can be observed through mesmerizing underwater viewing windows. Beyond that, the zoo features immersive habitats, conservation-focused exhibits, and fun experiences like giraffe feeding and behind-the-scenes animal encounters.

Sidi Bou Saïd stands out as one of the highlights of a trip to Tunis. Reach this hilltop village by taxi or suburban train, where cobbled lanes wind between Santorini-esque white houses, their doors and shutters painted vivid blue. The sea views dazzle at every turn. Best enjoyed with mint tea at Café des Nattes or Kahoua El Alia as the sun dips low.

Kasbah Square, a monumental plaza at the entrance to Medina, holds deep significance in Tunisia’s history. Once the site of a fortified citadel (demolished post-independence), it now anchors administrative buildings like Tunis City Hall and the National Monument — a memorial to pivotal national events. Facing the iconic Kasbah Mosque, the square blends tradition and modernity with its red Tunisian flags and iconic black lanterns. Since 2011, it has also become a gathering place for political demonstrations, including historic sit-ins demanding government reform.
