Tunis is overall safe if you dress with the cultural context in mind, as a born and raised Tunisian I have never experienced anything in this city that has made me seriously consider it has a safety issue. As they tell you in other capitals in the public transport: don’t use your phone, be mindful of your belongings!
Posted: October 14, 2025If you don’t know Tunisia, let me tell you: it’s one of the safest countries in the region for women. Here, we have strong laws that protect us against violence, and there are centers where women can go if they need help or support. In the streets, schools, and workplaces, you will always see many women active and present, which makes daily life feel more open and secure. Of course, no place is without challenges, but Tunisia really tries to create an environment where women can feel safe, respected and free
Posted: September 28, 2025It’s pretty much safe. The police are basically everywhere and they’re so friendly and open to answer questions also the people are so friendly and helpful and they’re very knowledgeable about the foreigners countries and you can easily talk with them about everything and they will absolutely understand.
Posted: September 15, 2025It's moderatly safe. Be respectful to the country and understand the culture before going. Research dangerous neighbourhoods (very well known) and stay away and do not go alone in the dark or in abandoned places and you are good to go.
Posted: August 7, 2025I have lived here my entire life and i really think it's quite unsafe. But the fact that i had a bad experience, doesn't mean other people are lying. So just be careful and smart. Plus, we have a code here don't trust young boys but you can trust old men and women.

Hi! My name is Leila, I am 23 years old. I spent the last year teaching English in Jerusalem, Palestine. I am originally Tunisian-Egyptian and have lived most of the my life in the U.S.! I love solo traveling and meeting new people. I currently live in a farm raising chicken, sheep, and harvesting watermelons (very random I know!). I like the farm life but I also live for going to cities and exploring historical sites and the nightlife !!

I’m a 24 year old finance graduate and hospitality and tourism management masters student. I often sing and write my own music that is still not ready for release 😌 I’ve visited Turkey twice and France once and am planning to expand my horizons further as soon as I get my financial independence 🤞🏼 I speak Arabic, English, French and Turkish, and can greet and have small talks in German, but would love to learn more languages from locals all around the world 🌎
