Moving around in Tunisia - transportation
![]()
The transport infrastructure in Tunisia is quite well developed. The most popular form of public transportation is buses. Depending on the carrier’s company, the technical condition of the automobiles also varies. However, every tourist is generally guaranteed a safe and relatively comfortable travel on this type of transport. Also, within the cities, there are particular types of minibuses that stand out among all the others with regards to their color (white with a red horizontal stripe). They are known to commute passengers much faster than regular buses, and their ticket price is also cheaper.

The local government regularly allocates money for the purchase of new trams and as a result, moving around the city using this kind of transport is quite comfortable.
