I would say that it depends on specific places and times but generally it's moderate. and personally i think people make it much horrible than it actually is . For me i feel safe walking around in kairouan than in tunis the capital at least here people have each other's backs

I’ve been in Tunisia for about 4 months in a didn’t experience any type of sexual harassment whatsoever on the contrary people where very nice and they welcomed me to their country and culture , I think that I will repeat my volunteer work here
Posted: May 16, 2025Honestly, it depends on where you are exactly. But mainly, it's fairly safe. I've never gotten an issue, but I can't talk for everyone. You just have to be as careful as you usually are in any other place.
Posted: May 9, 2025Tunis is quite safe especially if you avoid just a few areas after dark which are already well known and could be easily avoided . All touristy places are very safe. As a women I think it’s a good place to live or visit.

It’s not a crouded city and it’s basically a military base . There’s military everywhere. It’s also safe at night and people here are polite, warm and open minded . Why do I have to write this much omg

It's heavenly and beautiful! We visited Tabarka, Bni Mtir and Ain Drahem. Tabarka has great beaches with mountain and old castle views and luxurious hotels. Bni Mtir has enchanting forests with breathtaking Waterfalls. Take the chance to buy essential oils from the guy near the Waterfalls; his products are authentic, and the prices are very reasonable. Ain Drahem was also very beautiful with a unique vibe.
