September 9-10
We visited Hammamet during those days, and were entirely traumatized. It's only many days later that we learned that Hammamet is the worst city when it comes to the locals' behaviour, who keep litterally harassing tourists, especially female tourists in their 20s. I'm talking about those little shop owners, who ocasionally block your way in order to force you to enter their shop, but also about regular locals who just want to talk to you because you have boobs. They will follow you trying to figure out where you're from and what language you speak, even if you ignore them or make up a language. Believe me: we tried both options.
Hammamet is a very small city of which the sea is the main attraction. If you have to pick only a few cities to visit in Tunisia, I would suggest you choose Sousse over Hammamet.

Our three-day group safari started that day, and after a few hours, there were mechanical troubles with the 4X4 we were using and we had to force a place into another one for the day. Luckily, that new 4X4 had a very cute guy behind the wheel...! Anyway, we visited an amazing coliseum in El Djem, which was well worth a visit. Afterwards, we had lunch in an underground restaurant/hotel in Matmata, and we visited a Berber-type house. At which point Maridi started feeling faint and crumbled to the ground...! It didn't last long but she scared the hell out of pretty much everyone and had to bear everyone asking her how she was feeling now for the next two days.
At night, we rode camels in the Sahara desert, which was an absolutely extraordinary experience; then we spent the night in a hotel in Douz.

We drove through the Chott El-Djerid that morning; it's a salt lake. Very impressive to see. We stopped in Tozeur and had the afternoon free, which we spent relaxing in the pool, before visiting the Dar Cherait Museum nearby with a new friend from New York.
We left the light on the whole night because, having stumbled upon a horrible spider on our way in in the afternoon, Maridi couldn't sleep in the dark. She actually jumped into my bed within seconds when she felt something on her foot...! Our relationship has officially reached a whole new level then.

This was the last day of safari. We saw oasis in Chebika, Tamerza and Midès. They were astounding sights, really. Then we had lunch in a hotel in Gafsa before driving to Kairouan, where we only visited a carpet shop. That stop was very disappointing as it was clearly made so we'd spend money in that shop. There were many other things to do and see in Kairouan from what we've read, and they weren't carpets.
Then we were dropped at a hotel in Sousse, which turned out not to be the one we had reservations in, so we had to get a cab to get to our actual hotel, only to find out our room had not been paid for so we had to leave a credit card as a guarantee until they did, the next day. It was a very stressful hour, and only because of that, I would not recommend you deal with Selim Tours or Tamaris Voyage. Luckily, the staff was unbelievably kind, and even upgraded us to an all-inclusive stay when they had nothing to do with the actual problem. The hotel was called Riadh Palms, and it was incredible. Do stay there if you're ever in Sousse. It's huge, the staff is the sweetest in the world, it has a huge pool, and moreover, it's actually located ON THE BEACH. It's must. Plus, Sousse is a very beautiful city.

September 14-15
Our representative from Tamaris/Selim visited us to explain what had happened and pay back the money we'd spent on the cab. He drove us to the medina, where we visited a Mosque and did some shopping before going back to our hotel.
We had the nicest waiter, and the lousiest German table neighbours at the hotel restaurant, who actually went crazy over the fact that they were sitting next to us intead of another German couple they'd met over the course of their stay. Luckily, the other German couple was friendly... We spent a lot of time on the beach and near the pool, and because alcohol was now paid for, we drank a fair amount of wine and drinks. We had a lot of fun. Really...! Sousse is definitely my favorite city in Tunisia.

September 16
We went to Dougga in the morning with our friendly driver. The ruins there are plain crazy; it's definitely worth a stop.
After that, we were dropped in Tunis, which we deeply regretted. A man tried to lead us somewhere undefined and Maridi had to pretend she wasn't feeling well for him to leave us alone. We hated Tunis; it was dirty, ugly, it smelled, and the people weren't very interesting.

In a nutshell, Tunisia is very, very beautiful, but the people there are a hassle. Book an organized trip with people to lead you - you don't wanna go there with only a backpack, believe me.
