GOOD TO KNOW

Tunisia Travel and Vacation – Good to know

Visa for Tunisia is not necessary for citizens of most European countries if the stay lasts up to 90 days. However, you must have a passport that is valid for at least six months after entry. For longer stays or other nationalities, a visa is required, which can usually be applied for online. Make sure to have all documents ready to ensure a smooth entry.

The Tunis-Carthage Airport (TUN) is the main international airport in Tunisia, ideal for off-road travel. Alternatively, there is the Enfidha Airport (NBE), which operates numerous charter flights. Both airports offer rental car services, which are important for off-road adventures. Make sure to plan transportation options in advance or explore the best rental car providers to start your adventure early.

The local currency is the Tunisian Dinar (TND). Credit cards are accepted in larger cities and hotels, but it is advisable to bring cash for rural areas or markets. ATMs are available in cities, but currency exchange offices often offer better rates. Avoid exchanging money at airport exchange offices as they may charge high fees. Plan your finances well for off-road adventures.

Vaccinations are recommended, including Hepatitis A, Typhoid, and Tetanus. Additionally, a travel insurance should be taken out that covers off-road activities. Inform yourself about the healthcare and conditions before the trip. Even if no vaccinations are legally required, it is safer and advisable if you plan to travel in rural areas. Protect your health during your trip.

To drive in Tunisia, you need a valid driver's license, ideally the international driving permit. Buy a local SIM card for internet access; these are available in stores and at airports. Providers like Ooredoo and Tunisie Telecom offer competitive rates. Don't forget to unlock your phone before the trip to use local rates and enjoy healthy connections while you explore the desert.
