Tunisian National Tourist Office

here’s so much to see and do in each region of Tunisia: a wide variety of landscapes, a coastline spanning 1,250km, studded with islands and archipelagos, a fantastic array of traditions and customs and a rich historical heritage. We are delighted to introduce you to these regions by breaking them down into three areas: the north, the centre and the south.

Attractions: The government owns and manages museums and historical sites that are key
attractions for tourists. Tunisia has one of the largest museums in the world and in Africa - Le
Bardo with a unique collection of mosaics. One of the sector's primary problems is the
quantitative and qualitative weakness of its leisure infrastructure - restaurants, cafes, bars,
nightclubs. Also, the sector lacks professional staff with expertise in running cultural and
entertainment events in tourist areas. In their efforts to diversify the Tunisian tourism offerings,
the government and private actors have started to invest in alternative attractions like spas,
hunting, fishing, diving, sailing, marina, and golf. Most of these efforts have fallen short, though
spas in Tunisia have enjoyed success.
