2024 Tunis City Center Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in November)
So far, the most recommended visa-free niche country with an average cost of CNY 1,500 per person.
It's not that I can't afford Greece, but 🇹🇳 is more cost-effective.
Tunisia, an unexpected surprise on this trip, is more romantic than I imagined and more surprising than I expected.
During the five days in 🇹🇳, I had a very pleasant time every day. Here is my travel guide, with an average cost of CNY 1,500 per person!
✍️About visa:
Visa-free, I flew directly from Morocco.
The customs will check your return ticket and hotel reservation when you enter the country, so prepare in advance.

🚄About transportation:
There are buses in Tunis City to various attractions, which is quite convenient.
Taxis are also not expensive, about 8-10 dinars for 5 km💰
To other cities, you can choose train, bus, or mini bus.
I took a mini bus to Sousse, which took about 1.5h-2h, and took a train back.
☎️About SIM card and currency exchange:
You can get a free SIM card at the airport with your passport at Orange, and recharge 20 dinars for 10g, which is definitely enough if you don't watch dramas~
Some people say that it is best to keep the receipt for currency exchange, so that you can exchange for other currencies when you leave, and Tunisian money cannot leave the country, which will be checked. But I was not checked, and I just spent it all.
💰About expenses:
Cash withdrawal: CNY 500
Accommodation: CNY 539 (5 days, 3 days in a youth hostel, 2 days in a single room)
Credit card: CNY 577
🍕About food:
Tunisian pizza is delicious! Better than Morocco and Egypt, and cheap.
Coffee is also cheap, sitting on the street and ordering a latte for 1.5 dinars, comfortable~
Tagine is N times better than Morocco~
💕About feelings:
Safe, it feels much safer than Morocco, and Tunisia is a country of morning people, everyone closes and rests at around 9 pm. Most stores are open at around 6 am.
Romantic, Sidi Bou Said is more romantic than Chefchaouen in Morocco, perhaps because it is close to the Mediterranean Sea.
El Jem, I was shocked by it, when I was at the entrance of the attraction, I felt like I was traveling through time and space.
Sousse is the slowest city I have ever stayed in, and Tunis City is already very slow. It can be said to be a "sloth" city version.
Tunisia is so beautiful, the Mediterranean sunshine, the Mediterranean sea breeze, it seems to be blowing here all the time, making people feel very happy.
