Q: Does anyone know any of the nice beaches or areas?
A: Some popular places to visit are: *the multiple Star Wars filming locations *Toezer -famous for it's use of yellow bricks and a filming location for The English Patient *Matmata -a UNESCO world heritage site preserved for it's underground houses *the Sahara *Carthage -the former capital of the ancient world *El Jem -houses the largest in tact Romen Coliseum outside of Italy From any of the popular destinations, most hotels will offer you a chance to take an excursion to see other cities and sights. You will be able to choose from going to see the Sahara, some Star Wars sets, the Roman Coliseum in El Jem, etc. The mountain region is breathtaking! There are fantastic views and an the atmosphere is reminiscent of an old town in Switzerland. Absolutely gorgeous! The coast is marvelous. The Sea is clear and picturesque. The midland and south are terrific because they offer you the chance to peek into a forgotten society - one that holds fast to tradition. I have been all over Tunisia and have visited most cities and have loved everyone because they each have their own special charm. Here is a short description of the most popular tourist destinations: The Isle of Djerba is popular because of it's seclusion from the mainland, it's quiet and calm atmosphere, and the fact that one of the Star Wars set is on the island. Definitely a favorite for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle of busy life and enjoy peace, quiet, great beaches, and nature. Hammamet & Yassmine Hammamet (same city, but divided into two parts) is popular because it is calm, quiet, yet has a great nightlife and wonderful beaches. Sousse (a lot of people think of Port el Kantaoui) is great because it offers lovely beaches but is still very much a bustling city with lots of shopping, food, and fun. Monastir (Skanes is a part of Monastir) is another popular destination because the city is very calm and quiet with gorgeous beaches, a few good restaurants, and is only 30mins from Sousse. It is particularly nice for those who want peace and quiet during the day but want to be close to good nightlife. Tunis is the capitol city and the heart of major companies. It's a bustling modern city that offers all the convinces of more developed countries. If you'd like any more information, or if I can be of any more help or assisstance, please feel free to contact me.
