MORE INFO
Tunis is one of North Africa’s more practical capital bases for remote workers who want Mediterranean climate, low costs, culture, and regional access. The city combines a historic medina, colonial-era districts, business neighborhoods, cafes, universities, and nearby coastal suburbs like La Marsa and Sidi Bou Said. It is not as polished as European Mediterranean cities, and bureaucracy and infrastructure can be uneven, but it offers good value and a richer urban ecosystem than Tunisia’s resort towns.
