Summary: Excellent travel companion
Comment: I have just returned from a month+ backpacking in Tunisia and found this guide to be invaluable. Excellent recommendations and fascinating background conveys the love of the country from genuine travellers. Even though this edition was a few years out of date, everything was pretty much spot-on, although note that the train to Tozeur is up and running again (even the more dull Lonely Planet 2007 ed. about Tunisia was out of date on this one!). Take it with you and enjoy...

Summary: Worth far more than you'll pay for it.
Comment: My other review was not of this edition, but of a previous edition, which was still being sold when it was very out of date.This book helped us travel all around Northern Tunisia as well as helping us survive the south - almost like two different countries, incidentally.
Excellent on hotels. Excellent on street maps. Very good on public transport. Misinformed on road rules. (I drove 850 Kms and didn't find a single roundabout where the give way rules differed from England.)
Seems to be misinformed about women's place in society. The articles by women about how repressive Tunisia is seem to be from 1990 - possibly earlier. We didn't see any examples of women being harrassed. (We were not in 'tourist areas' very much). In fact, men were especially polite and friendly to my wife. We saw young couple behaving the way they do anywhere in the world and girls dressed in the usual modern skin tight jeans and tee shirts. As I say, we never saw any of them hassled.
Overall, a very useful guide for travelling in Tunisia.

Summary: Out of date
Comment: I ordered the Rough Guide to Tunisia from Amazon in about January 2005 and this is the one I was sent.
It is so far out of date concerning public transport and (as far as I could tell) social attitudes that it is completely useless.
Street maps were okay.

A must to have if you plan a trip to Tunisia.

Summary: Great guide to places to see, stay, and eat.
Comment: The Rough Guide to Tunisia gives accurate information on the culture and customs of the Tunisian people. From limited usage of it, it appears to state very accurately what is, and what is not worth seeing. There is a good section on transport throughout the country, and each Town listed has hotels listed as well as places to eat, with a guide as to what the cost is likely to be (non specific, just expensive/cheap.) A very useful companion to have with you when visiting the country.
