Welcome to Tunisia, a North African country with a rich history, stunning landscapes, and a vibrant culture that will leave you wanting more. From its bustling cities to its coastal towns and desert landscapes, there’s something to discover for every traveler.
Must-See Places:
1. Carthage – Explore the ancient ruins of Carthage, the former capital of the Carthaginian Empire.
2. Tunis – Get lost in the maze-like Medina of Tunis, a UNESCO World Heritage site featuring beautiful architecture and colorful markets.
3. Sidi Bou Said – Wander the cobblestone streets of this charming blue and white village perched atop a hill overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
4. Djerba – Head to this island to soak up the sun on its beautiful sandy beaches and explore its colorful markets.
5. Sahara Desert – Take a camel trek or a 4x4 tour through the vast Sahara Desert, the largest hot desert in the world.
Food & Drink:
Tunisian cuisine is a mix of Mediterranean, Arab, and African influences, resulting in a flavorful, spicy, and often vegetarian-friendly cuisine. Try traditional dishes such as brik (a fried pastry stuffed with egg and tuna), couscous (a staple grain dish), and merguez (spicy lamb sausages). Don’t forget to try the national drink, mint tea, and stop by a café for a shot of strong, sweetened coffee.
Culture & Customs:
Tunisia is a predominantly Muslim country, so it’s important to respect the local customs and dress modestly when appropriate. Women should cover their shoulders and legs when entering mosques or other religious sites. Arabic is the official language, but many locals also speak French and English. Haggling is common in markets and souks, so don’t be afraid to negotiate prices.
Getting Around:
Public transportation in Tunisia is limited, but taxis are readily available and affordable. If you plan on exploring the rural areas or desert, it’s best to hire a guide or take a guided tour. Renting a car is also an option, but be aware that driving in Tunisian cities can be chaotic.
Whether you’re interested in history, culture, or simply soaking up the sun, Tunisia is a fascinating destination that promises to leave a lasting impression.
