Hi everyone!
This is the second episode in my Tunisia series where I leave Tunis, the capital, and travel to Hammamet, a popular seaside city about an hour away by road.
The vlog starts with me giving a tour of my hotel room where I also give a travel tip for travelling to countries with different power or electricity configuration. I also talk about the currency of Tunisia and explain the value in relation to Pounds Sterling. Then I head downstairs to the breakfast area in my hotel and enjoy a Tunisian breakfast, sampling various items on the menu.
After breakfast, I leave the hotel in Tunis and make my way to the louage station using a local taxi. At the louage station, I find the appropriate minibus to travel to Hammamet. Once the louage is full, we hit the road, and I give non-verbal comments on the journey and my experience of it.
I then arrive in Hammamet at my hotel where I receive a complimentary coffee and treats as well as a tour of the room from one of the staff members. I also reflect on my journey and the change of scenery between Tunis and Hammamet, and calculate the cost of my journey using local transport.
Hope you enjoy this vlog! Let me know what you thought of it in the comments!
In my next vlog, I'll be exploring Hammamet. Make sure not to miss this and subscribe to the channel!
Best regards
Willie

Your tunisian videos inspires me to be more adventurous next time I visit. I stayed in Yasmine Hammamet for the first time in this country, now preparing for my holiday in Djerba island. I am the type who usually only relax in the resort and doesn't visit places where locals go, doesn't enjoy haggling in souks.. I agree that it is culturaly enriching to experience local customs.

That was a very unique breakfast buffet. The strawberry juice looked good, I thought it was tomato juice😂. Always interesting to see where you actually stay in the countries, Willie. Both hotels looked nice but the last one looked very luxurious with the flower petals and the view over the gardens. Informative vlog for tourists👍

I remember that you cannot take out their currency out of the country. You have to exchange there and either use up all the money beforehand or spend at the airport( not much of anything there). I stayed at El Moradi in Yasmine Hammamet which was very close to the beach. I enjoyed my times there and hoping to travel this year.
@willieexplore

Yep, I had to exchange currency again at the airport. They had no Pounds so I had to get Euros.

Nice mate, accommodation and transport are very reasonable. The fig rolls looked good, you can get them here in the UK, bit of an old-school snack, but they don't look as good as the ones you had

Cheers as always mate! Definitely very reasonable transport and accommodation. I was also pleasantly surprised at how spacious many of the rooms are at such a low-ish price. Never seen those particular fig rolls in UK shops. I prefer the chamia I had at the Tunis hotel for a bit of sugar-pick-me-up - I would go back to Tunisia just for that!

Chemiya is grounded sesame seeds with sugar syrup for the base (sometimes with honey for the wealthy people). Then you can mix it with all sort of nuts or grounded nuts for more flavor. It's eaten with bread (bread and unsalted butter is my favorite) or with sorghum pudding called Drôo in Tunisia.

Chemiya or helva is even better when it is put on a bread slice with some butter like when you put butter and jam on the bread on the morning, that's haw in Tunisia we eat it.

Great video! I'm going Hammamet in May and have a few questions: What's the most popular SIM card and how much does it cost? How much do keyrings and fridge magnets cost? Where can you exchange GBP into TND in Hammamet? What's the most effective way to get to Tunis and Sidi Bou Said from Tunis? I checked the trains and it doesn't seem to be too frequent.

@willieexplore
@willieexplore 6 месяцев назад
@@keonrichardson3453 I would always avoid currency exchange at the airport as they almost always offer a lower rate than in town. The problem you might have is that Tunisia has a closed currency, meaning you can't obtain it before you travel to the country. So my advice is to exchange a small amount at the airport (maybe enough for a taxi) and then exchange in town. I had the option to exchange at my hotel rather than in town, so hopefully yours offer the same service. Hope this helps!
