Don't fortget to buy Tunisian dinars (TND) before your departure to Tunisia.
Planning a long and exciting trip to Tunisia? It is important to prepare well before your departure to understand the habits, customs and practices that will be part of your stay. What is even more important to know is the handling of the local currency, which is tu Tunisian dinar (TND).We recommend that you always carry some cash alongside your credit cards. To do this, plan to convert some dinars before your departure so as to get a better offer and not to bother about exchange rates once there.
Practical tips for planning your budget
A budget of 140 TND per person will allow for accommodation, a meal in a restaurant and a second meal of the day in a fast food restaurant. This total also includes the cost of your transport.
In Tunisia, tipping is not compulsory but it is appreciated if you decide to offer it. In this case, count 10% of the bill. A traditional meal in a mid-range restaurant will cost you around 25 TND, while fast food will cost you around 10 TND.
