However, this North African gem offers a unique blend of stunning beaches, hidden cities, Sahara adventures, traditional food, rich culture, and historical sites that are sure to captivate even the most seasoned traveler.

Tunisia's coastline stretches over 1,300 kilometers along the Mediterranean Sea, boasting some of the most beautiful beaches in the region. From bustling resort towns to secluded coves, there is a beach for every type of traveler in Tunisia. One of the most popular destinations is the island of Djerba, known for its white sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters. Whether you want to relax on the beach or try your hand at watersports like windsurfing or diving, Djerba has something for everyone.

For those looking to explore beyond the beaches, Tunisia is home to a number of hidden cities that offer a glimpse into the country's rich history and culture. One such city is Kairouan, known as the "City of a Thousand Mosques." This UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to some of the most stunning examples of Islamic architecture in the world, including the Great Mosque of Kairouan. Wander through the narrow streets of the medina, sample traditional Tunisian cuisine, and shop for beautiful handmade textiles and ceramics.

If you're a thrill-seeker looking for adventure, look no further than a Sahara desert safari in Tunisia.

For the ultimate adventure, consider booking a hot air balloon ride over the Sahara for a bird's eye view of this breathtaking landscape.

No trip to Tunisia would be complete without indulging in the country's delicious traditional food. From mouthwatering couscous dishes to fragrant tagines and fresh seafood, Tunisian cuisine is a true celebration of flavor. Don't miss the opportunity to sample harissa, a spicy pepper paste that is a staple in Tunisian cooking, and be sure to try a glass of mint tea, the perfect accompaniment to any meal.

Tunisia's rich culture is evident at every turn, from the vibrant markets filled with colorful textiles and intricate pottery to the traditional music and dance performances that take place throughout the country. Visit the Bardo Museum in Tunis to admire a collection of Roman mosaics, or explore the ancient ruins of Carthage, once a powerful city in the Roman Empire.

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...
