Additional Information

Sidi Bou Said is a town located about twenty kilometers north-east of Tunis. Perched on a cliff overlooking Carthage and the Gulf of Tunis, it is named after a saint, Sidi Bou Saïd El Beji.

The international fame of the village was acquired in 1912 thanks to an English baron who built a magnificent palace. Sidi Bou Said became then a place of rest and inspiration to many artists, musicians and writers such as Chateaubriand, Gustave Flaubert, Alphonse de Lamartine, André Gide, Colette, Simone de Beauvoir, etc.

Exciting - We had a really pleasant time here wandering about and experiencing the sights and sounds. We have very little hassle from street sellers, although it is always best to hold tightly onto your valuables because there is a lot of bustle and activity and people brushing by you. We never experienced and problems and in fact had a few laughs on the way through. Worth a visit.
