In the afternoon, our driver took us to a tourist attraction - Port  El Kantaoui (Marsa al-Kantawi or Mina al-Kantawi)*. Agreeinn with the beelow Wikipedia review below, we point out that it is a kind of tourist trap and artificial creation to meet the needs of rich tourists. However, the walk was...

Shopping in Sousse

 Of course, wandering the streets of Medina in Sousse also had other purposes besides enjoying the atmosphere of the Tunisian old town. Iwona - an incurable cat love - did not pass up any opportunity not to "talk" with them, and there are plenty of them everywhere. These cats are neat, beautiful an...

Sousse - Medina

Two visits to the Medina allowed us to confirm the absolute lack of tourists in the off season. The old town was quite deserted, but we were free to wander along the alleys. Watching photos, try to get immersed in the atmosphere of this part of Sousse.

Well, the flight from Berlin to Monastir in Tunisia is admittedly short (just over 2 hours), but the waiting  is much longer, though. A two hours' delay, and first waiting in a long queue for check-in. In this ...
