All About Tunisia — Travel Guide

All About Tunisia — Travel Guide
18

The definitive English-language traveler’s guide to Tunisia — written and verified by Tunisians who actually live here.

572 pages. 27 chapters. 156,000 words. The Tunisia you won’t find in a brochure.

Seven years of on-the-ground reporting by Carthage Magazine, distilled into one comprehensive guide covering every region, every UNESCO inscription, and the cultural context most international guidebooks skip.

What’s inside

The book is organized into four parts. Part I (eight chapters) covers the practical mechanics — visas, money, transport, accommodation, health and safety, communications, etiquette, and when to visit. Part II (five chapters) is the cultural foundation: a short history of the country, the cuisine, the languages, religion in daily life, and the crafts and arts. Part III (nine chapters) walks through every region of Tunisia, from Tunis and Carthage to the Sahara. Part IV (five chapters) offers thematic trails for travelers who want a journey with a thread — the Roman trail, the Islamic heritage trail, the Star Wars filming locations, a food trail, and a hiking trail.
