I tried easyJet's new £44 UK flight to Tunisia

Tunisia is a country that has changed a lot. Its history has left marks, but it has also become a unique nation. I wanted to explore it.

Tunisia was a French colony, then a dictatorship, and now it's a democracy. I understood its history and wanted to see the real Tunisia.

Tunisia is easy to visit, with easyJet's new flight from Newcastle to Enfidha. You can swap cold weather for warm weather in just over three hours.

Hammamet is a special town. It's not like other tourist places with nice beaches and bars. The north-east coast of Tunisia is more interesting.

The hotel was great.

Hammamet offers 5-star quality at 3-star prices. My stay at Les Orangers Garden Villas was amazing. It had everything I needed for a relaxing beach holiday.

Shopping is fun.

Hammamet's Old Medina is a beautiful walled area. It has a stunning mosque and traditional doorways. You can buy unique things like carpets and tea.

The Old Medina is a great place to buy holiday gifts. Vendors sell interesting things, and they're not too pushy. If you're not interested, they leave you alone.

As a female visitor, I was treated with respect. The merchants were polite and focused on their products.

Cats are everywhere in Hammamet. The community takes care of them, and they seem happy and healthy.

Old Hammamet can be confusing, but the ocean breeze is refreshing. The coastline is beautiful, with clear water and fewer crowds.

Then, there's the famous Carthage.

Carthage is a special place.

Carthage is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It's an ancient city with preserved walls and columns. I could have spent a whole day exploring.

Tunisia is proud of its history. The people are eager to share their knowledge with visitors. I heard many interesting stories.

Sidi Bou Saïd is a town.

Sidi Bou Saïd is a cultural town with white and blue buildings. It's like Greece, with cobblestone streets and artisans selling unique things.

The food is great.

Tunisian cuisine is timeless and delicious. They have couscous, harissa, and other dishes. The food is perfect, and I loved trying new things.

I visited a farm and tried new foods like mechouia, a spiced pepper salad.

Tunisia is affordable. It's one of the cheapest holiday destinations for Britons.

The cost of living is low, and you can bargain for better deals. It's different from shopping in Britain.

The weather is great.

The weather in Hammamet is pleasant, with a coastal breeze. Summer temperatures are hot, but the sea is refreshing.

Tunisia welcomes visitors from the UK. British tourists are known for tipping generously.

EasyJet's new route from Newcastle to Enfidha-Hammamet started on 22 March 2026. Flights operate twice a week, with fares from £44 one-way.

EasyJet offers a 7-night stay at Les Orangers Garden Villas in Hammamet for £1,282 per person, including flights and luggage.
