When is the Cheapest Time to Fly to Tunis?

A year-long holiday destination, Tunis is popular with tourists no matter the month. However, you’re sure to find the cheapest flights to Tunis and the best deals on accommodation during the winter, because the temperatures can drop into the low teens, meaning that you’ll avoid the mass of sun-seeking travellers that tend to visit during the summer months.

When is the Best Time to Book your Flight to Tunis?

It is best to book your Tunis flights about three months before your intended departure to find the best deals and secure your preferred travel dates. However, last-minute flights can often be cheaper if you are able to be more flexible and want to hunt for the best bargains. If you’re able to visit during the summer, then be sure to visit during the annual Carthage International Festival, an event held amongst the ancient ruins of a historical city.

Flying to Tunis-Carthage International Airport (TUN)

Tunis-Carthage International Airport (TUN) is an airport that serves Tunis, the capital city of Tunisia, as well as the surrounding area. TUN is named after the grand historic city of Carthage that lies just to the east, and it serves more than a million passengers annually.
When booking return Tunis flights from the United Kingdom (UK), there are a number of routes available depending on your preferred departure city. The only direct flights to Tunis are operated by Tunisair; they depart from either London Heathrow or London Gatwick. To leave from other parts of the UK, you will have at least one stopover in a major city, such as London, Paris or Frankfurt. These indirect flights are operated by several airlines, including British Airways, Lufthansa and Air France. Return flights depart from most major UK airports, including Birmingham, Manchester, Bristol, Edinburgh and Glasgow among others.

On Arrival and Getting Around the Airport

Upon arriving at the single-terminal airport, you’ll be greeted by a clean and modern building that has all the necessary facilities as well as many eateries and retail opportunities. Passengers can enjoy a variety of food and drink options from several establishments and shop for souvenirs, local products and luxury goods from both normal and duty-free shops. Financial services, such as ATMs and bank branches, are available for use as are currency exchanges, so you can get rid of any Tunisian dinar before departure.

Getting to the City from Tunis-Carthage International Airport (TUN)

Tunis-Carthage International Airport (TUN) is situated approximately six kilometres from the city centre, so it is a relatively quick trip there from the airport. There are a number of transportation methods available to passengers upon arrival at TUN, each with their own benefits. Within the arrival hall, you can find several car hire companies if you wish to have your own car during your stay. Outside, you can find an abundance of taxis, but if you chose this option, be sure that the driver uses the meter; otherwise, you may be overcharged. The final option available is to catch one of the public buses, which will transfer you from the terminal to the centre of Tunis for a very reasonable price.

Why Visit Tunis?

After many years of hiding in the shadow of unstable governments, Tunis has finally had the chance to prove itself as a worthy holiday destination. A bustling metropolis packed to the brim with history, culture and friendly faces, Tunisia’s capital is just itching to be explored by keen travellers.
Perched on the coast of the Gulf of Tunis in the Mediterranean Sea, Tunis is a city that has been shaped by many of the most influential cultures in history. Originally a small Berber community, it soon came under the control of Carthage, an ancient city that was the base for the great Carthaginian civilisation. Since then, the settlement that has grown to be the modern-day capital of Tunisia was at one time under the rule of the Romans, the Ottomans, the Spanish and the Arabs among others. Throughout the city, you can find the influence of these great eras. Perhaps the most famous examples are the Medina of Tunis, the old city walls, and to the northeast of the city, the ancient Carthaginian ruins.

Don't Forget Before you Fly

As a British national travelling to Tunisia, you can visit the country for up to three months without a visa. Different rules may apply for those who reside in the UK, but who have a different country of origin, so it is best to check this before booking your trip. The local currency in Tunis, as with the rest of Tunisia, is the Tunisian dinar. Be advised that leaving the country with Tunisian dinars is prohibited, so all local currency must be spent or exchanged with proof of the original bank withdrawal or exchange before your departure from Tunis.
