Question Gabe for you, please: Do they have any alcohol at all in Tunis for foreigners who DO imbibe? Seems to me they should just to keep the tourists happy.
@@SuiGenerisAbbie Apparently so, the folks I spoke to at the viewpoint in the medina in Part 2 mentioned it can be found. But I didn't come across it while I was there. As I showed at the restaurant in this video, they were serving virgin cocktails. I guess you have to know where to go for the hard stuff.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos Thank you for this helpful reply to my question. I really appreciate it when anyone is nice enough to reply especially if they get asked repeated questions, from their loyal followers subscribers and commenters. And, you are nice enough. 😄 Yes, I saw that virgin mojito you were drinking in Tunisia. I'm glad that found it to your liking. Gosh, I don't reckon that I could visit anywhere that did not serve the harder stuff (aka, REAL BOOZE!). I'd be left sorely wanting. Do keep us posted and let us know if you ever found hard booze, apart from beer that is. Now, you were able to find beer in Tunisia, yes?
@@SuiGenerisAbbie There was just the Celtia beer that I found on Djerba island, I think that was the only beer I came across: th-cam.com/video/vrVsSizyUJo/w-d-xo.html I'm sure you can find it in certain places but definitely not widely available.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos Huh! Is THAT right? Man ... that is some scarcity that I do not reckon I'd be fully down with, Mate! I gotta have my daily tipple, or two, or ... three, or four, or five, ... or (Well, you get the idea.) 🙃
Gabe, the fruits are "Prickly pears" also called cactus fruit, cactus figs, Indian figs, barbary figs, and tunas. They are the fruits of the Opuntia cactus plant. They're most commonly found in the Mediterranean like Tunisia.
Indeed gotta be frank rubbish is sadly everywhere. It was not the case in the past. It's a transitional chaotic period for the whole country but something worth noting. Sometimes the rubbish in the mind and clouded hearts is far worst than mere external rubbish. Always remember that dear.
13:16 -- I see the "Summer sale" sign in French. I could manage fairly easily in Tunis, I reckon. 17:49 -- The Prince of Wales sign ... LoL on our left. And the store with his name of in, looks like it sells undies, too or very revealing dresses! Hmmm ... Gabriel good for you showing us what you eat. Foods from other lands are so BINDing. When people share their foods with other people, it is so telling! It is my strong feeling that people should connect more over their various foods. Maybe if we did that, we would be friends with more countries and not have to watch our backs as Americans, so often ... although I must say, you seem to have the knack of making new friends in every port, Gabriel.
The fruit you've just wondered about is cactus fruit and its seeds are of a great benefit, so we do eat the whole peeled fruit with its seeds... you had to try it, it is super sweet ... the vendors on the street would peel them for you ...
Thanks gab for another great video. The fruit that they selling is cactus fruit, it's so sweet and delicious, it does have lots of seeds but I usually just swallow the seeds :)
There are some of the best mosaics in the world at the Bardo in Tunis. I walked there from downtown but you can also use public transport. It does have a tragic history and the memories of those who lost their lives should be treated with respect.
Love your no frills coverage of the places you go. Well done. I have travelled all over Europe, Africa and Asia as an independent traveller. When it comes to booking accommodations I find Google maps - street view is great to sus out the location and the surrounding areas before deciding to book it. But I guess you need to access a computer to do that successfully. I did also however come unstuck with an apartment I rented for a month in Istanbul. I didn't notice their was a Mosque near by.
I actually did a day trip to Tunis from Sousse while on holiday to Tunisia for 1 week and seen the Medina, Al Zayatuna Masjid, Bardo Museum, Roman Carthage, Sidi Bou Said and Lake Tunis. I must admit that I got very bored in Bardo Museum but everything else was good especially Sidi Bou Said and Roman Carthage
Much better part of the city! Normal hustle and bustle but not overwhelming like the last video, I'm curious to see the Medina, usually are the most interesting places.
Hey Gabriel, The fruits you were curious about arein fact from cacti. They are referred to as wild pears and are related to the dragon fruit. if you think gauva fruits have large seeds, then these will be humongous. Quite tasty and tend to be sweet. You eat the center (man was cleaning them) whole swallowing the seeds; seeds help to clean your intestines as they pass through. Readily available in the US as well at your local supermarkets, including Costco.
I used to travel years ago. I gave up to start a business. It’s going ok but it bores me. I wish I could just travel again and leave my responsibilities behind. I always felt so free whilst travelling, like a big weight was lifted off my shoulders.Its the feeling of living for the moment without thinking to much about the future that I miss the most. Every now and then I check up on your Chanel to see if your still at it. It always amazes me that your still going! It seems that you will never stop. Do you ever think you will stop travelling one day? Do you ever think about settling down somewhere? Maybe getting married, starting a family ect. After all of the places you have visited, if you could live anywhere in the world, where would you choose? Respect to the big man Gabriel the traveler! Keep doing your thing sir.
Among the hispanics is call: "tuna" it comes from a cactus plant, is very sweet and juicy, but yes is full of hard seeds. Not to be eaten too often, unless you are ready to tolerated "costipation" . It also has a sandy texture, grows very often on desert dry areas....
Hi Gabe, the fruit you were wondering about is indeed a cactus fruit. It's called prickly pear and it's very delicious - it's sweet. You should try it the next time you encounter it 🙂
Cool, good to know. If it's the same one they served me at dinner I wasn't a fan, the big seeds were a real pain, spent a lot of time trying to get them out of my mouth.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos The seeds are supposed to be eaten as they are the ones that cleanses the intestines. Don’t worry, they will not clog you up at all
Wowww nice Walk around tour in Tunis, City of Tunisia 🇹🇳 Goodvibes City and very interesting place Thank u so much sir Gabe for your wonderful walk around tour Godbless from your solid fan supporter Viewer from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir Marvin 😍🙂🙏👏👏🎉👏👏🙏🙏👍👍
Hi Gabriel, there is still a major European Influence, and like most countries, you always see transplanted trees and flowers from different regions of the world. These palm trees turning brown tells me it's not conducive to heat which is why it is brown it's getting too much sun but there are attractive some plants absorbed so much water and kill off other plants in doing so. Those fruits are cactus fruits are extremely healthy cactus fruits reduce body fat, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels significantly high in fiber and protect against heart disease.
I love to see what people eat in foreign lands, of course as you know. That fish couscous at the beginning of this video, is terrific looking. IMO, one cannot go wrong with couscous. I eat it in place of oatmeals at any times of day.
There used to be a British indie/alternative band in the early 90's called Sidi Bou Said, named after the Tunisian town. I remembered some of their songs. People compared them to the Throwing Muses and the Pixies, but I felt Sidi Bou Said were a poor man's version of them. Not surprisingly they didn't last that long.
My grandfather was there in WWII for a bit. Used to have a ring with ‘Tunis 1945’ on it. Nice to see some of what he might have seen! Note: You don’t say the ‘p’ in Champs Élysées. 🙂
Gabe have you ever had problems with your backpack and plane flights loosing your pack? How often do you have to pay extra for your pack on plane rides? I am guessing on trains and busses you have no problems keeping your pack with you?
The last time my luggage was lost was in 2016 with Spirit Airlines back in the US. Terrible customer service, no delivery of the bag and no info about where it was, they just said come back for the flight the next day and maybe it would be delivered. Luckily it was with the luggage on the next flight.
Gabe, A nice morning treat as always. It occurs to me that you have now been on the road since January since long ago Mexico and Luxembourg (kind of amazing, so long ago). How does this trip stack up in length to past ones and does a recharge return to the US beckon soon? Thanks. Steve Personally, headed to Albania and Prizren next week; enjoyed your videos from both.
A couple times I've traveled for eight months straight. I'm now at seven months for this trip. I will probably head back home sometime in September, looks like it will be another eight month journey.
Try to visit other places in Grand Tunis like Sidi Bou Said, La Marsa, Gammarth, Carthage, Menzah, Manar, etc and eat local food as well: Brik, Chapati, Fricassé, Kafteji, Lablebi, etc...
Hi Gabriel! What do you do to save battery life of your dji camera? You said that your battery lasts quite a long time, but my brand new runs out very quickly. Even when the camera is just turned on without recording, about every few seconds it goes down by a percentage. And when I'm recording it's even faster.
Strange, I'm not sure. Sounds like maybe you got a dud? This is my second DJI Osmo Action and it's the same as the first one, one battery lasts quite a long time.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos I agree, it's strange. This is a brand new battery that was in the box with the new camera. When you're recording, is the main (big) screen always on so you can see what is recording? Do you press the record button or the display button when you stop recording? I'm just trying to figure out how to set the camera and how to record so the battery will last longer.
Hi Gabe thanks for sharing your Tunisia travel. I would like to ask about car rental if its better to get a car from the airport arrival area or out of the airport like in the city. How much is a small sedan? How much are the parking fees? Can you please recommend a car rental company. Thank you and have a safe trip.
I didn't use a car rental company in Tunisia, I rented the car from my hotel. I talked about it in this video: th-cam.com/video/4c0odQXgRyo/w-d-xo.html
Hi Gabriel the loud voice yesterday in The street he was saying all items cost's 1$. hope you find a place to swim in marsa or sidi bousaid ... in jerba unfortunately you go to the worst Beach s ... I'm Tunisian following your videos almost 4 years ...
Hello! Not sure whether you mentioned this already: I have missed a few videos of yours at this point. How has your experience with food and WiFi speed been in Tunisia? Cheers
Wifi has been rough, pretty slow everywhere. I've had some great meals, but not my favorite food in the world. The fish dish at the beginning of this video was delicious, a really good sauce. Lots of couscous, fish and various international dishes available like Italian and Middle Eastern food.
Gabe, Ancient "Roman" ruins of Cartage? I guess you can call it Roman, as they turned Cartage into a ruin. Also, I love your channel, no idea why, I just do. I wish you could share more of the "boring stuff", like airports, train stations, maybe a colab with local youtubers, just to spice things up a bit. Cheers.
Carthage was established by the Phoenicians, then destroyed as you said by the Romans, then destroyed again by the Arabs. There will be tons of historical info in the video, filmed it yesterday.
It’s been interesting to see how you appear to be the only tourist around. Could you give us an idea if you think that tourism has returned after the pandemic, to these countries Gabe?
Tourism has roared back in many places like Greece where they're having the biggest tourist season ever. But I think Tunisia isn't super popular for tourism generally. Maybe it's also a matter of the pandemic, plus there have been terrorism incidents there.
Hey there is a big camping community in Tunis you should definitely try camping if you wanna experience real Tunis honestly the places you ve been visiting so far are the most mundane and boring places in Tunis and don't reflect it's true beauty.
Here is my prsonal story related to Tunisians. I'm Japnese and when i visited France, Belgium, The Netherlands back in 2017 i was shocked. The street at night is full of the People like you see in this video. They are very agressive, especially in Belgium and The Netherlands. I even ended up in 2 police stations because the 2 Tunisians. Once in Belgium at 9 PM when i am looking for a drink in South of Brussels, the Tunisian tried to rob me but i fought and someone see and call the police ( At the police station the Police told me that that guy is a Tunisian not Belgian ). And another one is in Rotterdam The Netherlands. I remember well that i just casually walking and the guy saying something to me and i said i don't speak Dutch so he said : " Your eyes little, your pennis little ". I totally shocked ! But thing got worst when he tried to assulted me ( with his big group ) i run and go to the polcie station and reported. 2 days later the police told me that they know who is the man that insulted me and that is a Tunisian not a Dutch person ! I can not express how sad am i when this happened. I hope thing got better in 2022 but i never want to visit those countries again.
You can't judge that all tunisian people like these two tunisian men!!! If you have bad experience with these two men that doesn't mean that all tunisians are like them and maybe the police lied to you about saying that they are from tunisia..
@@selena9527Two Tunisians by chance in two differents countries and he is not supposed to judge? The police lied? Why would the police lie? Yes predjudicial attitude towards a whole population based on these unfortunate incidences is not fair. Still I would understand the guy. That been sad I am sorry this happened to you, it saddened me to know they were Tunisians as I am Tunisian my self. I don't know how will you take this and how important my comment would be for you, but I felt the urge to tell you that many Tunisians are good people and so hopefully you meet the good ones someday that might change your idea about us.
I like how classical and old this country is giving the impression how European countries might have been a long time ago. I noticed the street car was cruisin' fast and vehicle traffic is dangerous. While there are the usual lights and signs, the rule is anything bigger than others have the right away which means pedestrians and motorbikes have to be super careful and defensive in how they move about. I guess I could stay around there for a month or two as it looks cheap, historical, and one we don't know much about. Thanks Gab!
Nice video giving me a taste of what Tunis is like. I was going to move there as a kid with my family but my dad got another position and we moved to Mauritania instead. I love Gabriel Traveler more than Gabriel Tourist!
Appreciate your footage from your world travels. You have introduced me to regions I would not a have any inclination to visit. But I enjoy seeing how the other side of the world co-exists with each other. As a fellow Canadian I think you should high tail it to Toronto, The Ottawa region and Montreal while the weather is is ideal and summer-like. I don't think you have offered y-tube footage of the areas I have mentioned. Cheers from Canada
North African is different from sub Saharan africa they Don't have the typical African diseases like ebola, Malaria, the region more related to west asia .
Although I know museums aren't always your thing, you passed one at the beginnning of the video when trying to decide where to go. Then there was a church in the background just after you mentioned that it's a majority Muslim country. As for the fruit, I would guess it is a cactus fruit which is supposed to be sweet and soft on the inside (of the prickly outside).

The fruits you were curious about arein fact from cacti.

Did the chicken cordon bleu have ham in it even though it's a Muslim culture?
no not ham.. just chicken or turkey escalopes..
we don't serve pork ham in Tunisia
@@atefrihane thanks brother!
I thought there was ham in it, unless it was something else that looked like ham. But there was something rolled inside the chicken.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos it must be a turkey ham
@@atefrihane You could be right.
Hey there is a big camping community in Tunis you should definitely try camping if you wanna experience real Tunis honestly the places you ve been visiting so far are the most mundane and boring places in Tunis and don't reflect it's true beauty.
The best places to visit in tunis the capital is el marsa and sidi bou said and gammarth, carthage,lac,menzah in general the eastern part
Here is my prsonal story related to Tunisians. I'm Japnese and when i visited France, Belgium, The Netherlands back in 2017 i was shocked. The street at night is full of the People like you see in this video. They are very agressive, especially in Belgium and The Netherlands. I even ended up in 2 police stations because the 2 Tunisians. Once in Belgium at 9 PM when i am looking for a drink in South of Brussels, the Tunisian tried to rob me but i fought and someone see and call the police ( At the police station the Police told me that that guy is a Tunisian not Belgian ). And another one is in Rotterdam The Netherlands. I remember well that i just casually walking and the guy saying something to me and i said i don't speak Dutch so he said : " Your eyes little, your pennis little ". I totally shocked ! But thing got worst when he tried to assulted me ( with his big group ) i run and go to the polcie station and reported. 2 days later the police told me that they know who is the man that insulted me and that is a Tunisian not a Dutch person ! I can not express how sad am i when this happened. I hope thing got better in 2022 but i never want to visit those countries again.
You can't judge that all tunisian people like these two tunisian men!!! If you have bad experience with these two men that doesn't mean that all tunisians are like them and maybe the police lied to you about saying that they are from tunisia..
@@selena9527Two Tunisians by chance in two differents countries and he is not supposed to judge? The police lied? Why would the police lie? Yes predjudicial attitude towards a whole population based on these unfortunate incidences is not fair. Still I would understand the guy. That been sad I am sorry this happened to you, it saddened me to know they were Tunisians as I am Tunisian my self. I don't know how will you take this and how important my comment would be for you, but I felt the urge to tell you that many Tunisians are good people and so hopefully you meet the good ones someday that might change your idea about us.
Liar
I like how classical and old this country is giving the impression how European countries might have been a long time ago. I noticed the street car was cruisin' fast and vehicle traffic is dangerous. While there are the usual lights and signs, the rule is anything bigger than others have the right away which means pedestrians and motorbikes have to be super careful and defensive in how they move about. I guess I could stay around there for a month or two as it looks cheap, historical, and one we don't know much about. Thanks Gab!
No Gabe the long queues were for you but they didn't recognise you with your new haircut haha
Super !
Much love from Cologne 👍
Ye bledi Tunis !
Go and visit the beach from amilcar or Sidi Bou Said ✌
I think the fish couscous is pretty expensive compared to other places
It shouldnt exceed 7$
Nice video giving me a taste of what Tunis is like. I was going to move there as a kid with my family but my dad got another position and we moved to Mauritania instead. I love Gabriel Traveler more than Gabriel Tourist!
Dragon Fruit...? @ 16:55
No, dragon fruit looks a lot different. I think it wins for coolest fruit on the planet: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitaya
Has tourism returned to Tunisia? Didn't help that those tourists got shot at the beach and then domestic problems.
Yes tourism is back to Tunisia, and the country is safe.
I love your videos. Tunis seems like a very interesting place.
Beautiful city with beaut.architecture..it was once a carthagenian empire ,who was more worthy than the romans to rule the world....
Appreciate your footage from your world travels. You have introduced me to regions I would not a have any inclination to visit. But I enjoy seeing how the other side of the world co-exists with each other. As a fellow Canadian I think you should high tail it to Toronto, The Ottawa region and Montreal while the weather is is ideal and summer-like. I don't think you have offered y-tube footage of the areas I have mentioned. Cheers from Canada
Commie Canada under Herr Trudeau has lost its shine big time .
Don't you mean Carthage?
The fruit is cactus
It is not chicken cordon BLUE !!!!!! ?
habib bourgeba not bargubia
Wow. Be careful of Monkey Pox. I heard it originated from Africa. I am not sure if it is true.
North African is different from sub Saharan africa they Don't have the typical African diseases like ebola, Malaria, the region more related to west asia .
No monkey pox in Tunisia, if you're in Europe or the US though be careful, you might get it there.
Although I know museums aren't always your thing, you passed one at the beginnning of the video when trying to decide where to go. Then there was a church in the background just after you mentioned that it's a majority Muslim country. As for the fruit, I would guess it is a cactus fruit which is supposed to be sweet and soft on the inside (of the prickly outside).
Looks very nice , clean there . Why are Tunisians risking their lives in unsafe boats to go to Italy ????
38$ per night, that's very expensive. Couldn't you find cheaper than that?
I think they are date palms…
Amazing
Food looks delicious
