An ideal climate, a long and gentle seacoast, Tunisia, the northernmost country of Africa has for over 3000 years witnessed the passage of Phoenicians, Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Turks, Spanish and French. They came as fugitives or adventurers, to conquer or to claim, warriors and missionaries, traders and farmers each leaving a part of their story in stone or mosaics, on hills of Carthage and the threshold of the Sahara. Tourism is well developed in Tunisia, although not at par with other countries like Egypt and perhaps even Morocco. Hotel star ratings are not at par with European and US standards; a 4 star hotel is the equivalent of a 3 star. According to the American travel site "Frommer's" Tunisia is one of top World tourist destinations in 2010. The Frommer's site considers Tunisia, particularly the areas around the capital Tunis, as a microcosm of North Africa's charms; Islamic culture mixed with Mediterranean spirit and beauty, modern colonial remnants and ancient Roman vestiges. There are several ways to enjoy your vacation in Tunisia, including spending your vacation on the gorgeous Mediterranean beaches, or planning a circuit of Tunisia. Numerous charter flight companies can arrange flight and hotel, many that waivers a visa to enter. There are also some agencies that have ongoing tours for groups and private travelers.

Arabic is the official language of Tunisia and one of the languages of commerce, the other being French, a relic of Tunisia's former status as a French protectorate until 1956. English is of limited use, but fine for use around tourist areas. Tunisia is a Muslim country, and dress code is important, particularly for females. Whilst a lot of skin is tolerated on beaches and within hotel complexes, a modest amount of exposed skin may be frowned upon outside these areas.
