Book your visit to Tunis

Tunis, the charming capital of Tunisia, is steeped in history and culture, capturing the relaxed energy of the Mediterranean. Discover tales of ancient Tunisian civilisations while catching a glimpse of modern life in its innovative streets.

Life in Tunis moves at its own pace. Start your mornings with fresh pastries and strong coffee, while afternoons are spent losing yourself in the maze-like alleys in the Medina.

Immerse yourself in the unique rhythm of Tunis, with its cultural blends of Arab and Berber influences, sea breezes sweeping through the streets, and the rich aroma of Tunisian delicacies cooking away in street stalls. Every turn in Tunis brings something unexpected and unforgettable.

Things to do in Tunis

Explore the majestic 8th-century wonder, Ez-Zitouna Mosque, located in the heart of the Medina. You can’t miss it rising above the city’s narrow streets. Close by is Dar Lasram, an opulent 18th-century gem. Stroll through its grand halls feeling rather royal, as it was once home to Tunisian aristocracy and has now become a cultural beacon.

Make your way to Kasbah Square, where revolution once sparked – a square brimming with history and political energy. Take a walk to Ville Nouvelle (Tunis New Town), to experience its charming mix of colonial French architecture and cosmopolitan cafés. If you have some time to spare, let the brutalist beauty of Hotel du Lac inspire you – its unique, tiered design is a symbol of post-independence innovation.
