    This was so fascinating to watch! I love Roman history, my grandma and I would watch history channel and movies about it together all the time.

      The Roman history is fascinating! When you have time look up the story of princess Elissa. She’s the woman who founded Carthage. She’s Phoenician. The story of how she escaped from her brother, gathered a bunch of people and found land for them is amazing to read about.

    Thank you for the review, I like hearing your point of view. I am a solo female traveler, I'm used to being noticed (red hair/green eyes) pretty much anywhere, but there is a big difference between "being noticed" and not being safe. I'd love to go to Tunisia - enjoy

    • @TrekkingPals
      @TrekkingPals  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Pretty straight forward. You take the train from Tunis (Terminus metro TGM sud) and you get off at one of the stations near the first site you want to see. Every site has a ticket office from where you can purchase a ticket. It’s 12 TND and you walk or take cabs between sites. You use the same ticket to enter all of the other sites.

    You pronounced hbib bourguiba perfecly. Are you an Arab? I also went to tunisa solo in december and it was really safe and friendly
    Edit: just watched the video. You're of Moroccan origin. I advise you to tell that to the security agents because I have seen you paid 12 TD for the ticket whereas you can pay only 5 ( maybe 8 i don't remember) as a person coming from Maghreb region. I paid that as an algerian

      Hi Zineb 👋 I was born and raised in Morocco 🇲🇦 I realised a day or so later that there’s a price for residents of the Maghreb! I was happy to hear that.
      I’m glad you enjoyed Tunisia! Most Tunisians think I’m Algerian by the way. I love all the similarities we have ❤️

      @lewishudson231 You’re welcome. Even tho Tunisia is much more progressive with women rights in general compared to a large number of countries in the MENA but it’s still better to dress according to what’s acceptable for the local population. My rule is to observe how women are dressed in the street and cover to that level or closer.
