Is Sfax safe for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

I was doing a volunteer project for 6 weeks in Sfax. I actually felt safe. People were nice, and I wasn't scammed much, especially compared to more touristic cities in Tunesia. If you want to do a trip around Tunesia it is not really worth it but I can absolutely recommend the Medina in Sfax, it is very beautiful and very cheap.

It depends on where you are, but overall the city center is often safe. Ig make sure to stay in places where there’s people 😭 But if you’re ever somewhere very crowded you should be more cautious, just hide your money, camera if you carry one…

It depends on the moments. Sometimes taxis make me anxious. Even in my apartment I sometimes feel anxious. I don't know yet if it's because I'm not used to the place or if sometimes it's just not safe. Especially in my neighborhood. Sometimes people tell me it's okay. Sometimes not.

Sfax is safe for women to a certain degree Beware of robbery while walking downtown Avoid walking alone at night, go out in groups instead Avoid public transport (Bus) Avoid walking downtown during rainy days I recommend visiting during spring, summer It's generally warm and sunny
