First, does anyone know of an inexpensive car rental place in Tunis or Hammamet? The ones I have seen online are outrageous. Second, I rented an apartment in Hammamet and I'm curious if anyone knows of it or has stayed there before. The address of it is khereddine pacha hammamet nord near von hôtel le khalife. Thanks for any info you might have!

I have my last day in Tunis, but my flight will depart from Tunis at 15.35, so can I have a-few-hour visit in Dougga (depart from Tunis by louage then taxt and must come back to Tunis city center around 12.30 before heading to the airport)?

One more question, on my first day, I will arrive Tunis about noon (12.00), so is the rest of the day enough to visit all tourist attractions in Tunis such as medina, museum, etc (not including surburb like carthage or sidi bou said which I plan to go on the next day)?

I will take a two-day Sahara tour departing from Sousse and arriving the same place. Once arrving at night, I will take a train to Tunis. So, I would like to leave my luggage at Sousse Train Station for two days before the Sahara trip because I don't want to carry it to the desert. Is anyone know whether there is any luggage service at the train station?

Two more questions about public transportation, how can I find a route map of mini trains in Sousse and Port El Kantaoui? I don't know if the minitrains pass my hotel. And, is there public bus service in Sousse, or only taxi?

I'm considering booking a week in Tunisia the end of June for myself and my daughter. we are both blonde and I look quite young so we often get mistaken for sisters.

I have booked an all-inclusive, 7-night family holiday (6 adults 2 kids) for August 2013 as we all need a much-deserved break and some sunshine. I would be grateful for any tips from recent visitors while I have fun reading through the excellent travel pages in here. My main worry is the currency exchange system as I understand all transactions have to be done there and no currency brought home to the UK. As we are going all-inclusive, we won't need money for food and drinks, although I have no idea if there are any organised trips that may appeal, or the price of gifts etc outside the complex. If anyone has been all-inclusive and can suggest areas where I may need to take cash, or if there are any tips or warnings about exchanging currency, i would be most grateful to hear! Thank you!

Hi, I'll be travelling to Tunisia in November. Heard so much about the wonderful beaches in Tunisia and simply dying for a beach vacation after travelling around. How cold is it really in Hammamet in mid November? Will be there for a week. I did some searches online and seems like it's about 16 to 20 degrees? Not ideal but accpetable i think, so long as there is sun. Any chance I can possibly lie on the beach without freezing my %$^#& off?
