General: Tunisia

Please note before you start reading this review, that this is a review on the hotel and my holiday in a specific part of Tunisia. Unfortuantely only the general category is available to place the review, and in my opinion its better to write the review then not to. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Oh there is nothing better than lying on the beach with a cold one in your hand and the sound of the sea…….. Tunisia - You gonna like or you gonna hate, but it's your choice..... The decision Factor.......... A friend and myself decided to go on a girls holiday, cheap as chips was the key word and ... more

Tunisia was the recent choice for my latest Holiday destination so here I begin with a general review of the Country itself. Attempting to write a review on a whole Country is obviously a daunting idea but I thought that it would be useful to include lots of general information about Tunisia on the whole for anyone who may be considering choosing this place for a future Holiday. I will in due course post a few reviews of specific locations but for the moment the information within this review will be of a more general nature.

Newcomers should be able to read this as a stand alone op but its probably worth having a quick read of part 1 of the op (it was just to long to put in as one!) to get a rough idea of what I got up to for the rest of the time that I was there!

It cost about £140 per person to go on it and that included entry to all ... more

We got into the airport which was fully air conditioned, got our luggage and got on the coach all within an hour, the coach driver got on and to our relief put the ... more

+El Jem, Monastir and Port El Kantaoui+ Continuing on our trip, the next destination was El Jem and its impressive Roman Coliseum. This was probably my favourite part of the holiday and definitely the place I remember the most. It is thought to have been built somewhere between 230 and 238AD, for gladiator battles. Driving towards El Jem on the coach myself and my boyfriend Mark were getting quite excited. We had seen pictures of the monument, but having never seen anything similar first hand, we didn’t really know just how outstanding it was going to be. We were also excited because the ... more
