So, we went to Tunisia for the first time. The tour operator from which they flew was Nord, the meeting party was Voyage 2000. They flew by Tunisian airlines NOUVELAIR on an Airbus A-320. The flight was delayed by 20 minutes. We flew perfectly (fly 3.5 hours). The only thing that upset was alcohol on board only for money))), and the feeding was quite edible. We were met at the airport, quickly loaded into the bus and in minutes. 30-35 we were in place. They settled us literally right away (the time was 5 o'clock in the evening).
The hotel is 35 min. walk from the tourist center-Port El Kantaoui. The territory of the hotel is large, in the main building there is only reception, restaurants, and they settle in 2-storey bungalows. We got a modest room on the 1st floor without a balcony, but because we were not going to sit in the room, it did not upset us. The room has a bathroom, TV, air conditioning. Air conditioning and TV remote control - 15 dinars ($ 1 -1.4 dinars), 1 Russian channel, hot water was all the time, cleaned every day (the same regardless of whether you leave a tip or not), towels were changed .
The food is very decent. And if salads were repeated from day to day, then hot dishes could be chosen to your taste. Breakfast is mostly a couple of salads, vegetables, sausage, cheese, buns, eggs (there are 3-minutes, there are 5), muesli, cereals, yogurts, well, all sorts of baked vegetables, tea, juices, coffee, milk. Lunch is again salads, meat (we had: buffalo meat, rabbit, turkey, chicken, liver) in various variations, side dishes (potatoes, pasta), a couple of mashed soups. Dinner is all of the above. There were always a lot of sweets. Fruits were all the time - watermelons, melons, plums, nectarines, grapes, figs, apples, pears. Once a week, you can visit the a la carte restaurant for free (by appointment, we were able to sign up on the first day only for the last one). In the pizzeria you can eat pizza, french fries. In other bars you can only drink))).

The hotel has its own beach (we watched in Sousse when almost everyone who wants to swim on the beaches of 4 * and 5 * hotels was happy for their hotel), clean (early in the morning or late in the evening a special tractor came and cleaned the beach) soft white sand, entrance to the sea excellent, the water was clean all the time, I didn’t see a single jellyfish. Sunbeds and umbrellas are free, only mattresses are paid (I don’t know how many, they didn’t take). Sea entertainment - parachute, kayaks, catamarans, motorcycles, surf, bananas, tablets, skis, etc.
Animation is just super for both children and adults. The guys worked great. After their programs, the mood rose, everyone liked it. The only thing is that the language is mostly French and English (mostly French, Germans, Poles, Italians, Russians and Ukrainians were almost absent), but this did not interfere, even with my primitive English I could easily explain myself to everyone.
On the tour were only in the Sahara 2 days. I liked it very much. We got an excellent guide, with a good sense of humor and a lot of knowledge and interesting stories about his country. The most positive impressions - I advise everyone.
In general, everything suited me for the first time, I was satisfied with the trip.
