Typical models of the minivan/minibus class in Tunis are: Ford Galaxy 7 seater, Peugeot 807 7 seater, VW Touran, Citroen Jumper 8 seater, Toyota Minibus, Mercedes Vito and others.
Standard capacity of a minivan in Tunis is up to 9 people (8+1 formula), traditionally providing seven or eight passenger seats. The capacity of a minibus may vary from 9 to 15 people.
Please note, that in order to rent in Tunis a vehicle with capacity which exceeds 8 passengers, you would need a driving license of the corresponding category.
Minivan dimensions are quite unusual for an ordinary driver, which sometimes leads to appearance of scratches and dents during unsuccessful manoeuvring or parking. Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in Tunis.
Before leaving the parking garage in Tunis, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.

Popular questions on rental process
Despite the fact that the police rarely use radar, drivers are still not recommended to break the established speed limit. If you have broken the rules, do not even try to offer money to a police officer. They will take the bribe (with rare exceptions), but may significantly increase the amount of the fine.
You will find it simple to find a petrol station close to major highways and towns, but in remote areas of the country petrol stations are rare. Therefore, when you plan to make a long trip to the countryside, you will need to make sure that the tank is full.
You should also not forget that in suburban areas livestock may become a serious problem for drivers. Animals can appear on the road very suddenly, so it is better to drive on suburban routes in the daytime and at low speed.
