What to Do
For many visitors, the most rewarding way to spend time in Sidi Bou Said is simply to stroll through the Old Town, exploring winding side streets and stopping to explore the town's art galleries, studios, and restaurants at leisure. The sidewalks are lined with stalls, whose wares include hand-crafted souvenirs and bottles of fragrant jasmine. Make sure that your wanderings take you up to the lighthouse, where spectacular Gulf of Tunis views awaits.
When you tire of walking, pay a visit to the home of Baron Rodolphe d'Erlanger. Named Ennejma Ezzahra, or Sparkling Star, the palace is a testament to the baron's love of Arabic culture. Its Neo-Moorish architecture honors the age-old building techniques of Arabia and Andalucia, with a beautiful arched doorway and stunning examples of artisan wood carving, plasterwork, and mosaic tiling. The musicologist's legacy can also be explored at the Centre des Musiques Arabes et Méditerranéennes.
After a busy day spent exploring the town, return for a traditional hammam and massage.
Where to Eat
When it comes to restaurants, you're spoiled for choice — whether you're looking for a fine-dining experience or a cheap bite in an authentic café. For the former, try Au Bon Vieux Temps, a romantic garden restaurant with a mouthwatering menu featuring the Mediterranean and Tunisian classics. The food is complemented by mesmerizing ocean views and attentive service, and the wine list offers the chance to try regional Tunisian vintages. If you're thirsty rather than hungry, head to Café des Nattes, a Sidi Bou Said landmark loved by locals and tourists alike for its mint tea, Arabic coffee, and shisha pipes.
Getting There
If you're traveling to Tunisia as part of a tour, it's highly likely that Sidi Bou Said will be one of your planned stops. In this case, you'll probably arrive on a tour bus and won't have to worry too much about how to get there. However, those that plan on exploring independently will find it equally easy to reach the town either in a hire car, a taxi or with the help of public transport. Sidi Bou Said is connected to central Tunis by a regular commuter train, known as the TGM. The journey takes approximately 35 minutes.
Those with reduced mobility should be aware that it's a steep walk from the train station to the heart of the Old Town

n the early 20th century, Hammamet became the favourite haunt of artists, aristocrats and politicians including Winston Churchill, who worked on his memoirs here. This is largely due to George Sebastian, a Romanian millionaire who liked it so much that he decided to make it his home. He built a magnificent villa, now the International Cultural Centre set in a beautiful park. George Sebastian used it to entertain many writers and artist, including Andre Gide. Word spread and he was soon not the only foreign resident. The town also lured the American couple John and Violet Henson and their house became a meeting place for the artistic elite from all over the world.
