Hi,

From Sousse to Tunis it's something like an hour and half driving ... i think it's 140 Km, i donno what's that in mile ...
To go from Sousse to Tunis and vice versa is easy, you can choose between the train, the bus, and the Louage ( a car painted in White and Red) if i'm you i would choose for the last one ... about the prizes it doesn't cost anything ... it's something like 8 Dinars ... ( 5 Euro's , 4 Pounds) ...

To have an accommodation in sousse is easy and simple ... but it depends on your budget if you have money for sure you won't have any problem finding 5 stars hotels ... but whatever ... i believe you will be able to find accommodation always in Sousse

Cheers

So your plane will land in Monastir ? in the afternoon and you wanna be in the evening in Tunis ...

I think the best way is to get a taxi from Habib Bourguiba Airport to Sousse exactly in sousse to the Louage Station ( in Bir Chibak ) and there you will find a lot of Louages going to Tunis ... you won't miss it .. i mean it's easy to find ...

I think this's the good way to do it but not the best ...

Good luck

hey, i been there! i thought it felt like two hours at least. and i went by train, very fast, unless sheep are crossing! sousse is a must see place! it is easy to get lost though. i must say to really get the "feel" one must go shopping for tiles! we did and it was fun!

[secrets]

thankyou.
shopping for tiles? long way to go for tiles.?

You can get some nice tiles in Tunisia and for much cheaper than the uk. When you go to people houses and apartments you always see a lot of tiles.

The colors in Tunesia are unforgettable. The tiles are gorgeous and a real treat to use in your home. Shame theyre so heavy.
