Diar El Andalous Reviews

We arrived at the airport around midnight. Lovely well kept marble entrance.

Make sure you have a pen on the plane as you have to fill out a visitors card that you hand in soon as you go through passport control

When you come out the airport, you think its nice people wanting to take your bags to your coach, but we soon learnt its all for money as the man was very rude about it.

We booked our holiday, as accomodation on arrival which was fine as we were guaranteed 4* at least.

We got to the hotel and it seemed the hotel didn't know we were coming but it was soon sorted and we went to our rooms.
Lovely and well kept but our room was freezing. Two days later we went to ask for the heating to be sorted out, but their reply was there was nothing that can be done.

There was one man in the hotel Ihhmed, most delightful and helpful in every kind of way.

Food- Were a group of young people, and the menu looked okay, but tasted awful, I could not rate the food what so ever. There was 1 nice place in Sousse called The Salon bar. (looks like texas lol)

It should cost around 6 dinars in a cab. After 9pm the taxi tells you night time tariff which is 50% extra of the price thats on the meter. Make sure the cabs have the meter on. Just ask kindly, if they tell you its broke, just say you will get another cab and the driver will quickly fix it.

Ladies should walk around in groups, never alone. Just to be safe.

We never seen any trouble their as their was a huge police presence.

Their was no entertainment in the hotel. Just a normal day of animation by one young lad.

The Marina is 15 minute walk away and has lots of shops/restaurants/boat trips you can go on.

Don't feel threatened by the people, their just doing their job, kindly say no thanks. Their is a tiny carnival there, but not very safe, we are all 20-23 and asked them to stop the pirate ship and we were not safely secured inside it.

In the Shops, bargain with the shop keepers, I had the most fun doing this, Always offer third/half of price they originally offer and go from their.

Weather was nice for November but in general, tunisia was very quiet and definately not a place for children/young people especially in the Winter.

Holiday Rep from My Travel - top notch - Liz from Cork! and young girl Jeanette - Liverpool!

If your travelling with Panarama/My Travel/Airtours go and watch the Rep Show- Life is a Cabaret - very good atmosphere.

Oh yeah, I wasted more money on taxi's and tipping people, just be careful with your money.
All in all was okay but won't be returning anytime soon.
