Why travel to Tunisia?
Tunisia is a small country in north-east Africa, one third of which is desert. As a tourist, you can experience the spectacular Sahara through guided tours, camel riding or quad biking. The most magical way to do this is to spend a night in a desert camp under the stars.
The capital of Tunisia is Tunis, where you'll find bustling markets. If you want to sunbathe and swim, you can visit Hammamet or Djerba. In Tunisia, you can also enjoy spas, play golf, taste wines or see the filming locations of Star Wars. Here you will find lots of articles about Tunisia.
