Tunisia is a country in Northern Africa that has a Mediterranean Sea coastline in the very centre of Mediterranean Africa. Tunisia lies immediately to the south of Italy and Malta. Libya borders Tunisia to the south-east, whilst Algeria lies to the west. Djerba is a popular tourist destination on a Mediterranean island in the south. Port El Kantaoui is a popular tourist destination in Tunisia, north of Sousse. Jugurtha's Table is a large mesa with a moon like surface and deep crevasses in the northwest of the country (under Get Out section of El Kef). Douz is a tourist town on the edge of the Sahara, where you can hitch a camel ride. El Jem one of the best preserved Roman amphitheaters in the world. Dougga has impressive ruins of a remote Roman city. Matmata is a desert village of cave abodes, where Star Wars's Tatooine was filmed. Sidi Bou Said is a picturesque seaside town of white houses with blue doors and shutters. Skanes is midway between Sousse and Monastir. Fairly quiet resort but ideal as a base for the 2 towns. Carthage: famously razed by the Romans; remnants now encased in a museum; site easily reached by train. Quamart is one of the resorts in Tunisia. No visa is required for Americans, Canadians, European Community and Great Maghreb nationals (Libya, Algeria, Morocco and Mauritania). A landing visa (on arrival) is available for Australians. For New Zealand, other African and Asian countries' nationals, a visa must be applied for at the embassy of coverage. Tunisia's main international airport for scheduled flights is Tunis-Carthage International Airport (TUN) near Tunis. From the airport, you can catch a taxi to the center of Tunis (beware, meters may be rigged). Alternatively, take a bus. Other destinations with international airports include Tozeur and Djerba. Ferry services link Tunis to Malta, Trapani (Sicily, Italy), Naples (Italy), Genoa (Italy) and Marseille (France). Travelling boats generally leave from La Goulette port (near Tunis). SevenAir is the domestic airline branched off of TunisAir. (Pause for advertisement): Book deals on hotels in the best locations at your travel destinations. Make hotel reservations.

Driving in Tunis is very different than in the rest of the country, with traffic signals being widely ignored, and lane markings likewise treated as theoretical only. Rental Cars are fairly easy to find, but somewhat expensive. The national train company SNCFT runs modern and comfortable trains from Tunis south to Sousse, Sfax and Monastir. There are three classes of service, namely Grand confort (deluxe 1st), 1st and 2nd, and all are quite adequate. Tunisian cuisine is very much in the Northern African Maghreb tradition, with couscous and marqa stews (similar to the Moroccan tajine, however what Tunisians refer to as "tajines" are nothing like the Moroccan variety) forming the backbone of most meals. Distinguishing characteristics are the fiery harissa chili sauce, the heavy use of tiny olives which are abundant in the country, and tajines in Tunisia.
