The Bardo National Museum (Le Musee National du Bardo) in Tunis has the world's largest collection of Roman mosaics.

Most of the items in this impressive collection were moved from sites in Tunisia and North Africa such as Carthage.

Cruise ships like the MSC Splendida and Disney Magic stopover at La Goulette, the port for Tunis, on western Mediterranean cruises. While on family tours to the Bardo, kids on the Disney Magic can even create their own mosaics at the museum. Other Tunis shore excursions include day trips to Sidi Bou Said and the Medina (old town).
