Tunisia Confirms its Position as a Top European Winter Destination
This winter, Tunisia solidifies its place among the most attractive European destinations for sun-kissed vacations. According to British travel agency Thomas Cook and the Lonely Planet guide, the country charms with its exceptional value for money, offering all-inclusive stays for less than €460 and hotels from €63 per night.
Winter temperatures can reach 18°C in December, making the sea and beaches accessible for comfortable seaside vacations. For example, a 15-day stay in Port El Kantaoui, including flights, is offered at €425 per person, including meals, drinks, and activities, with prices rivaling other popular destinations like Turkey.
A Country with Multiple Facets
Moreover, Tunisia offers a unique blend of landscapes and heritage. Visitors can explore the desert, which covers 40% of the territory, with quad excursions, camel rides, or sandboarding on the dunes. In the south, in Matmata, the famous troglodyte dwellings that served as a backdrop for the Star Wars saga attract curious visitors and film enthusiasts.
Culture lovers can discover Tunis and its UNESCO-classified medina, traditional souks, and the Bardo Museum, rich in Roman mosaics. For a beach experience, the villages of Sidi Bou Saïd and the island of Djerba offer charm and accessibility, with flight tickets from Europe starting at €45 return.
This highlights that Tunisia remains affordable on-site: a meal for two in a mid-range restaurant costs around €17, while 4 and 5-star hotels offer rooms from €63 in Sousse and €87 in Tunis. Lonely Planet emphasizes that the country combines historical heritage, leisure, and relaxation, offering a complete winter experience at a low price.
With its exceptional value for money and varied landscapes, Tunisia imposes itself as a top winter destination for Europeans looking to enjoy sun, culture, and comfort without breaking the bank.
