A silent walking tour of HAMMAMET, Tunisia جولة صامتة سيرًا على الأقدام في الحمامات ، تونس
Hi everyone! This is episode five of my Tunisia series (and effectively "Part C" of my Hammamet videos), where I say goodbye to Hammamet in the form of a silent walking tour around sunset.
Sometimes it is nice to just go for a quiet stroll and hear the sounds of a particular place - the voices of the people, the sounds of traffic, birds chirping in the background and waves crashing against the rocks.
We start our tour in the center of town and walk down the main road, passing various pedestrians, shops and markets. We then get to the seafront where we walk along the pedestrian path next to the fort, hugging the shore - a peaceful experience in contrast to the city center!
Date recorded: 28 November 2022

Thanks Malek! Really appreciate your support for my channel and for watching! Shame about that Denmark-Australia result.
Behind that supermarket they sell beer but you cannot show it off. You must hide it. 😂 Nice seeing it again. There is an atmosphere that is lovely that you want to return.

Amazing walk, I was able to follow you on Google Earth map. That was a fair walk you did, you have to be fit with all the walking you do. Amazing place and that beautiful Mediterranean is just breathtaking. Thank you Willie. Kiwi from Virginia.

Really enjoying these Tunisia videos. Has never been a place I'd thought about visiting, but Hammamet is really a beautiful city, especially at sunset, so it is now on my radar. Thanks for the videos! Out of curiosity, have you been to Argentina before? I will be going in August!

You are always welcome Landshark! Thanks for watching and supporting my channel. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed Hammamet - definitely worth a visit! More Tunisia videos to come shortly too. Re Argentina - yes! I went in 2013 and visited Buenos Aires and Mendoza, and also took a bus over the Andes mountains to Chile. Let me know if I can help with some suggestions / tips!

@@willieexplore That's similar to what I will be doing, but I'll be in a car. Going to stay a few days in Buenos Aires with a friend I know there, then travel to Colonia in Uruguay, then up to Iguazu, through Asuncion to Santiago, and back to BA with a dip into Patagonia. Are there any sight between Buenos Aires and Santiago you would recommend? Thank you for the reply by the way!

@@RIANDOA I did a day trip to Colonia from Buenos Aires - highly recommend it! Didn't go to Paraguay but heard some good things. To be honest, I only really saw Buenos Aires and Mendoza and took a night bus between the two cities, but both cities were great. Not going to lie, I felt a bit unsafe in some neighbourhoods, so there are definitely areas to avoid. A bit of Spanish will go a long way but I found English was widely spoken, at least in Buenos Aires and Santiago.
I love Hammamet it is incredible city you missed Dar Sébastien near by the theater. It is an artist residence. The view it is incredible and all the vegetation. Hammamet used to be a destination for many international artist, like Man Ray, Elsa Schiaparelli and many others. Paul klee also was a fan of Tunisia where he discovered the light and the colors of Mediterranean cities. Also Hammamet is a safe place :) people are very nice :) welcome to my little but rich Tunisia :)

You are welcome and if you need more tips for an other trip in Tunisia you are welcome :) there still other place to discover Kairouan which is an amazing cities it used to be the capital of Islam empire established in 670 and this medina, Zaghouan and its water temple (Cartagena Empire), El Jam and its Coliseum, Siliana and all it's vegetations, Testour an Andalusian village, Kesra/Chenini and its amazigh village and of course Tozeur, Chebika and their oasis, and Chott El Djerid and its salty Lake :) and so far Djerba and it's oldest synagogue in north Africa and of course the people and the food and if you come in summer the betwitching smell of jasmine :) Hope to see you back even if the world/ people and nature are incredible and hopefully we have a lot to see and to discover :)

What a pleasant evening stroll ... thanks for sharing. Interesting ... graffiti seems to be universal. Think it would be interesting to have a graffiti comparison ... Tunisia, Netherlands, Mexico, et alia. [Greetings from you know where, Willie!]

Did you had a problem with safety there and as well as the language barrier?

No problem with safety and overall I found many people spoke English in the tourist areas. In Bizerte / northern Tunisia I struggled a little with language.
Please take care! Scammers everywhere!!!!

I am sorry to say that Hammamet or Sousse and the eastern region is not really Tunisia is a mixed cultures and races spread between the Midelest and Southern Europe. The real Tunisian is the Tunisian West. There the green mountains mix with the sea, and the percentage of the free Tunisian ethnicity is high

There's a lot to see in Tunisia I'm sure!
Unfortunately, u did not go to the second part of the city of hammamet, which is yasmine hammamet, which is modern and luxurious in terms of hotels, restaurants, and the corniche, as well as cafes with arabic sessions, and the experience of the horse cart that takes you on a tour around yasmine Hammamet and its beach.

Thanks my friend. To be honest, I am not that interested in the Tunisia that other Brits or tourists experience as I wanted to see the real Tunisia away from the luxury. Maybe when I'm retired I can enjoy those luxuries but for now I think there are so much more to see!

Ahh right got you :) I definitely intend to be back to Tunisia and explore more of this beautiful country. I was thinking Djerba and the south such as Tataouine but I do have a soft spot for Hammament so maybe I can go back and relax a day in Yasmine :)
