The Mediterranean port city of Tunis, Tunisia's bustling capital, boasts a vibrant mix of cultures and architectural styles, enchanting visitors with its historical attractions, picturesque beaches, and laidback vibe. Whether you prefer to wander the maze-like lanes of the old medina quarter, admire the sea views from the Moorish-style neighborhood of Sidi Bou Said, or sip coffee in the French colonial-era "Ville Nouvelle," you'll find plenty of things to do in Tunis. Besides colorful markets and the scenic sandy coast, Tunis attractions include historic mosques and churches, museums, and, of course, the ruins of ancient Carthage. Our Tunisia holiday planning tool allows you to schedule your trip to Tunis, learn about its attractions, and find out about where else to go during your holiday.
