Things to do in Tunisia

With ancient ruins, characterful towns and a long Mediterranean coastline, Tunisia offers plenty to see and do. Explore Tunis’ medina with its narrow streets full of colourful wares and enticing food, learn about the country’s fascinating heritage at the Bardo Museum, home to an unparalleled collection of Roman mosaics, or visit the ancient city of Carthage. Further afield, the extensive ruins of Roman Dougga overlook the rolling countryside, while in the picturesque coastal village of Sidi Bou Said you can wander the winding cobbled streets, flanked by pretty white and blue buildings, and look out over the glittering sea.
