Tunisia: Mediterranean Charm & Roman Ruins Await Indian Travellers

Tunisia is North Africa’s best-kept secret for Indians. The country welcomed 9.4 million tourists in 2025 , with Indian arrivals doubling since 2023. Highlights include the amphitheatre of El Jem (UNESCO, 3rd largest Roman colosseum), the blue-and-white village of Sidi Bou Said , and the medina of Tunis. The Star Wars movie sets in the Sahara desert are a major draw. Average Indian stay is 6 nights, spending $1,200 per person. The country offers Mediterranean beaches, Roman history, and desert adventures — all within a 10-hour flight from Delhi via Gulf carriers. Visa on arrival for Indian passport holders with a Schengen or UK visa.

Tunisia is an untapped gem for Indian B2B operators. Sell it as a budget Mediterranean alternative to Greece or Italy. Bundle Carthage ruins, Sahara desert camps, and Hammamet beaches. Low competition means better hotel deals. Target history buffs, film tourism fans, and winter sun seekers.
