Tunis is the capital so during the night it's not safe. There is safe places but you need to avoid dark and empty areas. During the day you need to take care of your bag and your Phone. It's not like other cities that can be safer for women

Tunis is the capital of Tunisia where you can find so many people from different cities and countries there it's basically a place that's so popular in Tunisia and walking there alone after dark is very dangerous especially for tourists but it's a beautiful place to visit in the day
