Tunisia advice

[feedthegoat27]

I had a week in Tunisia very recently (28th May - 4th June), in a 5* hotel in the Sousse area.

First time to the country and thought it was good. You can tell they are still trying to build it all back up again after what happened. The staff at the hotel were lovely and really liked the Brits (hotel I stayed was mostly Russian so I received their best service as they don't seem to particularly like them)

Although I didn't leave the hotel very much, I never once felt unsafe. But the hotel had enough going on day to day and I mostly just wanted to chill in the sun and drink beer, so in that respect it was perfect.

The people saying they wouldn't go due to safety concerns, does that mean you are reluctant to go to London? Or to Manchester?

Went with a mrs when I was at uni and it was cheap. She was blonde and attractive and the locals wouldn’t leave her alone, quite literally pawing at her even with me next to her. She hated the entire experience.

Bit like turkey then

Similar to East London except you might spot some Brits.

Why would I go to Tunisia over say Majorca or Greece? What does Tunisia have that other places don’t?

I know it’s on the cheaper side over there but you can pick up similar priced holidays in other countries where you don’t have a high risk of being massacred on a sun lounger and you can leave the hotel grounds without worrying you will be kidnapped.

Why the fuck would you want to go somewhere, especially with children, where its unsafe to leave the hotel grounds?

It would appear that, for some people, leaving the hotel grounds is not an option.

Went last year.
Loved it.
Very similar to Turkey and Egypt.

If you go to London, are you worried about being stabbed to death in the street?
If you go to a gig, are you concerned you might be blown up on exiting the venue?

If that's your mentality then I'd just stick to Spain or Greece, or maybe just stay at home.
