it's cool there, I advise you to take a jacket :))) http://www.gismeteo.ru/city/daily/11153/

Yes, at this time it is not hot yet! :-) You can grab a light jacket. It is better to take dollars with you, there you will exchange them for local currency at bank branches. I advise you to go on an excursion to the Sahara, it will take 2 days, but it's worth it! It is strictly forbidden to photograph the presidential palace! People in uniform, military installations, yes, and even Tunisians without their consent, although they themselves are often happy to decorate your photo, especially if you are a girl :-) Alcohol is sold only in Generale's special stores, moreover, the window is closed from public view. In hotels, please drink, there are no restrictions. Have a good rest!

Read my reviews too
It will be warm, but not hot, the sea is cold, you are unlikely to swim. There will be rain and wind from the sea - this is normal, do not be surprised. Even in the Sahara you can catch the rain, it's normal. There is a stereotype that in Tunisia all heat - do not flatter yourself. In the Sahara, it is even rather cool, especially in the evening and in the morning. Any currency will pass, and do not look for banks, for God's sake. Change at the hotel, just count.
Tunisians tend not to add up to 12 dinar, and this is almost 13 dollars, so estimate the difference. You need to let them know for the first time that you also know how to count, and you can give in the form of a tip, if you don’t mind, without allowing impudent underdoing. And if you're at the bank, don't forget your passport. The course is almost the same, even at the hotel it is better, but don’t count on the airport. There they always try to deceive, especially when leaving: there is nothing to add, there are no small (5-10 each) dollars, etc. Cunning! Do not forget - the guide sells the Sahara and Carthage - this is his main occupation. So while there is time, read the reviews about the excursions, you will know where the accents are. From your hotel, walk along the coast towards the old Hammamet, you can look into each hotel, it is not hindered.

From the currency - dollars, you can exchange for dinars at the hotel, be sure to keep the check, because if you do not spend all the dinars when departing from Tunisia with a check, you can exchange it back at the airport for dollars or euros. You have already been given a lot of advice on the weather. And for excursions, I would advise Tunisia - Carthage - Sidi Bou Said, Frigua Park + Zulu evening (very spectacular show). You will have to allocate two days to the Sahara, so if time permits, be sure to visit. If possible, take a taxi and go to the nearest tourist regions. There is an excellent park in Yasmine in the Medina, attractions are designed for older children and adults (entry in September 2008. was $ 20) When dealing with locals, be careful and extremely polite (but do not overdo it, otherwise you will often receive invitations to dates :)) They are all ok with security! Do not buy souvenirs right away, check out all the goods and prices (by the way, decorations in Yasmine and Sousse are slightly different, so you can choose something interesting). Pay attention to ceramics with white and blue painting and olive oil, it is 100% in cans. Thalassotherapy - more expensive than last season. Have a good rest!

I continue
the road along the coast to the junction 1-1.5 to the medina, combine business with pleasure, you can return by taxi if you get tired. In Tunisia, you CANNOT sunbathe with your legs spread wide - do not offend local customs! saying they are finished! You can not appear "on their territory" in transparent or not quite decent clothes - do not provoke them! That's why you have a hotel. You can’t drink outside the hotel, leave valuables unattended, don’t even leave your wallet in the room - they will rob you in the first hour, while you are fresh. Then to prove something to the hotel management or the police, or to ask for the help of a guide - hopelessness. This is an illusion that they do not steal from their own - yes, and you are tourists, it’s a sacred thing to throw you! You can’t sleep with an open balcony on the 1st floor or dry things, get into a car (not a taxi), stare at women in headscarves and bedspreads, scratch in intimate places, show banknotes - you risk, everyone will cheat! official bans, see guidebooks. It is impossible to see gold in sequins - a lie! do not expect to buy a quality product. Ask more!

Again, there is something to add to Katerina's review. Everything is expensive in Yasmine! If you want cheap and beautiful, you won't regret it. . . In order not to search, take a taxi to the station of luages ​​(minibuses) in Bareket Sehel - it's 5 minutes, ask the guide - he will tell you if he wants. Sit in a luazhik in Nabeul (it says on them or ask the driver) the cost is 1 dinar (well, maybe 1.5 now) from end to end. In the opposite direction, landing at the same place. Arrive in Nabeul (15km) to the center. street and go forward to the medina, there is a pedestrian zone. All ceramics and souvenirs are here, prices are half the price. It is clear that in Yasmin - resellers. Anyway, bargain! This shopping is much more pleasant than others! Even the guide will soar that it's not real, drive around Tunisia by yourself - don't listen, the guide wants his own commission. By taxi to Nabeul - 15-20 dinars and back. Be sure to take the time! If you don’t get tired, take a taxi in Nabeul to the Serin factory (there are natural cosmetics and ethno exposition, very beautiful) 5 min. from the medina of Nabeul.

Oh, thank you very much)))) But with the weather, I apparently got screwed (((I also can’t find a company, it’s so sad to go alone ...
аватар DegusT
so come with me in a month, at the beginning of June?!
do not believe if they say that it is impossible to return the money or reschedule the date. Who is the operator?
аватар inna-17
I forgot the operator, but the travel agency Avocado. I know that it can be rescheduled, but I already have a vacation from April 15 and persuaded my boss to reschedule it to April 26, so I can’t do it anymore (((But thanks))
аватар DegusT
Well, it's a pity, who takes a vacation in April? To warm up, I had to go to Jordan or Israel, it is already much warmer there than in Tunisia.
Either way, try to make the most of your time. And I forgot about oil. In cans, and even more so in glass ones, it is not 100% oil. There is a so-called oil-containing liquid. I do not recommend taking it, this is an export option. Real oil is draft from a barrel. There is an oil mill near Karibien, so it is possible to buy good 100% oil. I can tell you, write to me at [email protected]
аватар inna-17
Friends))) I found a couple and offered to change the hotel to Carriben Word Monastir or Caribbean Word Borch Ceria (in Russian). Can you advise whether it is worth changing and which one, if any?
аватар inna-17
About oil, why is it needed at all, I still have left from Thailand, and there I rested 2 years ago ...
аватар DegusT
Inna, of course you write the names of hotels .... with a bunch of mistakes :). Hotel in Monastir, not worth Hammamet, due to natural conditions. The hotel on Djerba is nothing, but from there it will be difficult to go on an excursion to the capital and suburbs. Only in the Sahara. The oil is perfect for a cream and a bactericidal agent, not to mention the use in salads. To fry on it is blasphemy. It is always more expensive than sunflower and any other, which confirms the unique composition of trace elements and vitamins.

IHMO Caribbean World Borj Sedria stands very apart, there is nothing nearby, not even a walk, and there are not many hotels nearby either, Cedria is a new resort. I don't know anything about Monastir.
аватар barbaryska
Caribbean World Borj Sedria 4 * is a hotel not on Djerba, but in a village near the capital city of Tunis.

safsaf, what hotels did you stay in Tunisia, and how do you know this country so well? but about the oil ... I was completely sure of its naturalness!
аватар inna-17
Oh, thank you))) Then they offered another option, from the same hotel series that I booked, but on the first coastline. Does it even make sense to change the second line to the first? Piece difference. In Italy, I generally lived on line 4 and it was normal, I didn’t strain at all. I will definitely take the oil
аватар DegusT
If you stay in Hammamet, I will give you a hint where to get natural. I was in Tunisia for the first time in Sept. 2003, since then already 10 times, but I prefer Hammamet. She has been on trips or on vacation in Monastir, Skanes, Sousse, Kantaoui, Jasmine, Nabeul, Tunis, La Marse, Gammarth, Bizerte and Tabarka. Not to mention 2 Saharas, and Carthage with its suburbs. I’m going again in June. But don’t think that I don’t go anywhere except Tunisia ... Tunisia is my favorite summer vacation, and work and winter are Sweden, Bulgaria, Turkey, France, Germany, Holland, Poland, Jordan, exotic: Algeria and Iran. Email me.
аватар inna-17
Cool)) And yes, we stayed in the same hotel that I booked. We'll be there together. Write about oil))) Do you think it will be very cold to swim?
аватар barbaryska
I was in the middle of May, it was VERY cheerful to swim, I just took a running start and ran out, wrapped myself in a towel and sit in the sun basking, and if there is no sun, then you won’t climb :))) In general, I swam twice for show, and even in April, I probably wouldn’t climb even for show :))) Although it all depends on the person :)))
аватар inna-17
Well, we are there until May 8, maybe at least a day will fall)))
аватар DegusT
Listen, Inna-17, test me by email, how can I show you the scheme on this site?
I can send the scheme to your address, and there you will find out where to buy real oil. As I understand it, you will stop in Hammamet... after a long ordeal.
аватар inna-17
Thank you)) I'm back today, I'm so delighted!!!! Everything is fine, a company of 7 girls))) they put everyone on their ears, they swam every day, although it was not hot in the sea)), only 1 day the weather was cool. Animators, such bunnies))) The food is wonderful (I can’t get wet in my pants now) Sugar is super!!! Only 1 frustration, 2 days before departure, I formatted the memory card ((((Thousand and three hundred photos as if it had not happened, I took a picture in recent days, but this is not the same ...
аватар katerina00
Inna-17, what is the name of the meeting company and could you tell me by chance the name of the representative (guide) who met you at the hotel?
аватар DegusT
I see reviews again. Well, super, it’s good that you liked it ... otherwise the people are divided strictly in half. Some, like me, then can not stop, the second - they spit, they say that Africa is the first and last time. Europe though more expensive, but more reliable.
аватар inna-17
Biblio globe, and some aunt met us, but then the guide Yana hung out with us, drove to the Sahara with Maxim (Tunisian).
аватар inna-17
In principle, I’m not picky, and the company was great and the weather didn’t let us down and it’s always nice to be a star, but there’s no way without it))) I’m delighted!
аватар DegusT
And the Tunisian is Mohsin, but it's easier to call Maxim. Excellent guide. It was he who dealt with the problems of an epileptic from Novosibirsk when I stayed in Busten. I also met him at an exhibition in Moscow. Well, you're in luck.
аватар katerina00
safsaf, have you met the guide Alexei, such a bald one? :) also good, but really the tour was like a marathon, people are terribly disorganized:(((
