From hidden cities to Sahara adventures, Tunisia offers a unique and unforgettable experience for travelers looking to escape the crowds and immerse themselves in a rich culture and history.

Hidden Cities

One of the most enchanting aspects of Tunisia is its hidden cities, where ancient civilizations once thrived. The city of Dougga, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a must-visit for history buffs and architecture enthusiasts. This well-preserved Roman city is home to stunning temples, theaters, and baths that offer a glimpse into Tunisia's rich history.

Beautiful Spots

Tunisia is home to some of the most beautiful spots in the Mediterranean. From the pristine beaches of Djerba to the rugged cliffs of Cap Bon, the country offers a diverse range of landscapes for travelers to explore. The island of Djerba is a favorite among sun-seekers, with its white sandy beaches and clear turquoise waters perfect for swimming and snorkeling. For a more rugged experience, head to the Cap Bon Peninsula, where you can hike along coastal trails and explore hidden coves and caves.

Sahara Adventures

No trip to Tunisia would be complete without a Sahara adventure. The vast desert landscape offers a unique opportunity to experience the beauty and solitude of the desert. Take a camel trek through the dunes of the Sahara, camp under the starlit sky, and witness the sunrise over the horizon. For the more adventurous traveler, consider a desert safari or quad biking excursion to explore the remote corners of this stunning desert landscape.

Traditional Food

Tunisia is a food lover's paradise, with a rich culinary tradition that blends North African, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern influences. Sample traditional dishes like couscous, tagine, and brik, and indulge in the spicy flavors of harissa, a chili paste that adds a kick to any dish. For a truly authentic experience, visit a local market or street food vendor to taste freshly baked bread, grilled meats, and sweet pastries that will tantalize your taste buds.

Rich Culture

Tunisia's rich culture is a vibrant tapestry of music, art, and traditions that have been passed down through generations. Experience the rhythms of traditional Tunisian music, from the haunting melodies of the oud to the lively beats of the darbuka. Visit local artisans in the medinas to watch them create intricate pottery, textiles, and jewelry using age-old techniques. And don't miss the chance to attend a traditional festival or celebration, where you can witness colorful parades, performances, and ceremonies that showcase Tunisia's unique cultural heritage.

Historical Sites

Tunisia is home to a wealth of historical sites that offer a window into the country's past. Explore the ruins of Carthage, once a powerful Phoenician city that rivaled Rome in its heyday. Marvel at the amphitheater of El Djem, one of the largest Roman amphitheaters outside of Italy. And wander through the ancient medina of Tunis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that is a maze of narrow alleyways, historic buildings, and bustling souks.

In conclusion, Tunisia offers a wealth of attractions for travelers seeking a unique and unforgettable beach destination.

South Of Tunisia

By
Tozeur is very much a city relying on tourism, but everything is done in a tasteful manner. Early developers understood that it was the traditions and culture that represented the possibilities for the future. While agriculture remains an important income, tourism employs a large part of the 40,000 inhabitants. But it is not only the lifestyle and the specific architecture of Tozeur, that bring tourists out here. The city is well situated at the fringe of the seasonal large lake  Chott el Jerid , allowing visits into the Sahara, as well as to many other smaller settlements. The history of Tozeur goes back a couple thousand years. Through most of its history has been autonomous, and beyond the direct control of Tunisian rulers. With the arrival of the French protectorate, no place in the country resisted new lifestyles and education more than Tozeur. Houses of Tozeur are decorated with rectangular yellow bricks arranged in patterns. The result is one of the most distinct and...

Medina (Ouled Hadef) / Ouled el-Hadef

By
The Ouled el-Hadef quarter is a district of harmonious appearance built entirely out of brick. The façades of the buildings here are decorated with large geometrical motifs which are reminiscent of tattoos and prints on fabric, an effect created by the way the bricks are placed together. The narrow alleyways, heavy doors and columned porches give Tozeur's old pedestrianised district a distinctly medieval atmosphere. This 14th-century medina has a unique, striking architecture of pale brickwork arranged in relief patterns of endless, rhythmic variation; the easiest way in is from Ave de Kairouan. The families living here come outside to socialise come dusk – strolling at this time is quite special. The medina of Tozeur is basically formed by the neighborhood Ouled el-Hadef, the oldest in the city, which has remained virtually unchanged since the 16 century. It is 50 m from [poi = 160381] Central Market [/ poi], along Av Kairouan. Built in the 14 century to house the Hadef clan, ...

Kairouan

By
Kairouan  is one site which probably isn’t covered enough by travel agents, especially when you consider the fact that it’s regarded as the fourth most important holy city for Muslims. It also happens to hold the much-coveted UNESCO World Heritage Site tag and anyone who likes to wander through a mixture of history and culture is advised to pay a visit. Kairouan happens to be home of one of the oldest mosques in the country in the form of the Great Mosque of Obka, while it also holds its own Medina which is ideal for those famous Tunisian souvenirs  With mosques, madrassas, and tombs aplenty, Kairouan has more than its fair share of monuments as the fourth most important city for those of the Muslim faith. The Arabic architecture here is truly inspiring and the skyline is full of skinny minarets and bulky domes. But it's probably the back alleys of the city's Medina that steal the show. With narrow maze-like lanes lined with crumbling colourful houses, Kairouan's old tow...
