WHY Should Tourists Return to SOUSSE, TUNISIA? 🇹🇳 (Sousse & El Jem)

Sousse سوسة is a city in Tunisia located just 140 km south of the capital Tunis.
Perhaps most famous for it's purpose built tourism area of Hammam Sousse حمام سوسة and Port El Kantaoui القنطاوي سنتر marina, tourism here was decimated by the terrorist attack in 2015 and covid more recently.
But that's the past - Sousse now has a lovely Medina and beach front but with little tourism.
Why return? This video will show you if you should include Sousse on your Tunisia itinerary.
I'll also visit El Jem, with it's incredibly preserved Roman amphitheatre - perhaps topping the Colosseum of Rome!

    I was in Tunisia a couple of weeks ago and really liked it. The colosseum of El Jem was definitely the highlight ! Virtually deserted and only £3 to enter ! Amazing place ! I also visited El Jem museum which has fantastic mosaics from the old Roman city. Looking forward to seeing more from Tunisia Chris 👍

    So the spring roll type thing you ate is called Brik, it contains usally a mix of potatoes, eggs, and thuna with some herbs, those ingredients can be mixed and made into a finger shape as the one you ate, but more usally a bigger version is made with a hole egg put inside the fried pastary and it's delicious

    Chris being an expert on Tunisia give the powers at be your findings and recommendations to improve standards while Tunisia as competitive edge and can invest in infrastructure..while Spain as become woke to many tourists climate change etc. Get a fee for your excellent observations, you need outside fresh eyes to identify positive change to increase tourism. my wife and i go to sousse for my birthday and anniversary for peace and lovely beaches cheap travel great shopping 😅 use your platform to tell Tunisia tourism/ government For a fee ..Thanks for excellent advice.
