Advantages: A truly amazing place - a feast for all the senses; cheap and very cheerful Disadvantages: You WILL be harrassed constantly by people trying to sell you poor quality junk!
...where Europe meets Asia, then Tunis is surely the place where Europe meets Africa. There are two distinct sides to this magical, mysterious and yet very cosmopolitan city; there is the old Moorish medina and the elaborate mosques and the New Town with it's French influences and architectural Art Nouveau styles.
I visted Tunis for just one day as part of a weeks holiday in Hammamet down on the coast. We had intended to take the train but, having ... ...The louage station in Tunis is on the outskirts of the city centre, next to the ring-road. From here it's just a short hop (across a frighteningly busy road - even when you use the crossings!) into town. We were totally unprepared for what we were met with - the sights, sounds and smells. We made our way through a narrow street market with stalls selling everything. There were fruit and vegetable stalls laden with chilli peppers and pomegranates, ...

.... The only small thing I would say is that they were very quick to take your plates away, which although sounds good, was a little annoying as you had to leave something at the table to go and get your dessert! Maybe just me!
Entertainment was good, comedians were fantastic. You could do what you wanted when you wanted and where you wanted.
The day trips were well organised and you can book them on the ship or before you travel. When I had a little fall on the quayside and twisted my leg, they attended straight away and refunded my trip money without me having to ask!

Advantages: warm, great views, tour guides, wine Disadvantages: may get to warm, time at Carthage
...Cartage is a very extraordinary place, but yet I may have this feeling because of the time I was there.
I was on holiday in Tunisia in 2001 and on the day of 9/11 I went on a trip to Carthage, isn?t it funny how you remember in detail where you were when historic events happen.
Anyway Carthage is a very historic ruin city, its not a city as we today know cities but back in the time of the Ottoman Empire that it was the capital of existed it was quite large.
The Ottoman Empire stretched from the Moroccan coast round the med over Egypt and Israel to turkey and Greece.
Carthage was the capital of an ancient empire a very gruesome large empire that by all accounts fell really quickly in defeat.
Carthage is on the north eastern part of Tunisia on the coast not far from Tunis the Capital of Tunisia, the area itself is quite a high...

...to read some of my other reviews to follow, but first I will begin with a few general facts.
LOCATION AND GEOGRAPHY
Tunisia lies in North Africa sandwiched between Algeria to the West and Libya to the South. Covering an area of 63,170 square miles it is actually the smallest Country in North Africa, but the growth in Tourism over the last few years has ensured that it is now the most prosperous of all of the Countries in that region.
The Population of the Country is just over 9.5 million with the major populations being centred around its three major Cities: Tunis, the capital (approx 1 million), Sousse (450,000) and Sfax. (350,000).
To the North of the Country Tunisia's boundary lies on the southern edge of the Mediterranean Sea with miles of Sandy Beach. It is along this Coastline that the main Holiday Resorts are to be found...
