Voice of Travelers to Tunisia

Unforgettable Experience In Tunisia

Exploring new cultures and places is something my family and I have always loved to do, so we decided to book our tickets to Tunisia. We live in London, so we were looking for direct flight tickets to Tunisia since it would otherwise be a long flight. We found tickets with British Airways, and even got a discount on our tickets. The flight was amazing, and we made sure we reserved a local guide and bought tickets for all the museums in Tunisia. We had an amazing time. Great beaches, extravagant culture, not to mention a beautiful desert, is what we experienced in Tunisia. I already booked more tickets for September for a trip with my friends to Tunisia. I loved this place.

Fun At The Desert

I always wanted to explore something new, and always wanted to see the desert, so Tunisia was the natural choice. I prebooked my tickets from Paris to Tunisia with AirFrance – without getting a return ticket since I wanted to stay for a little longer. The flight was great, we arrived on time, the staff at Tunisia's airport checked my tickets and were kind enough to help me with directions. The Sahara offers so many activities, such as camel rides. I spent one month in Tunisia and still hadn't had enough of it. I had to endure a little trouble finding tickets back to Paris, because I didn't have a return ticket – but luckily AirFrance found me a ticket and I got home safely.
