Travel Tips
Tunis is very big and it depends on where in Tunis you are looking, and what amenities you want your house/apartment to have. The more amenities, the higher the price. Do you want central heating or no? Do you want gaz du ville or gaz that you buy in a bottle? Do you want air conditioning or not? Do you want a great view or does it not matter? How good a neighborhood do you want to live in? Do you want it furnished or unfurnished? All these play a factor in the price.

Also, finding a place in central Tunis is going to be more expensive than if you look to the outskirts. Everyone wants to live in central Tunis so they don't have a big commute, so prices are almost double, if not triple there. And Tunis is one of the most expensive places to live.

I would suggest that if you don't mind commuting, you look in a suburbs such as La Soukra, Ariana, or El Menzah. They are all within Tunis, just not central Tunis and the prices there are lower.

First off, here is some conversion for you:
1TDN = 拢0.39, 拢1=2.536TDN
1TDN = 鈧?.58, 鈧?=1.721TDN
1TDN = $0.76, $1=1.312TDN

The cheapest you will find will be between 200-250TDN a month, and the most expensive will be about 600TDN a month. It's sad to say, but prices are ALWAYS higher during the summer because owners raise prices during this time.

While we have people that will help you to find a place to live "Immobliers"(real estate agents), they take a commission. My experience hasn't been good with them and I know others who have had bad experiences with Immobliers as well (plus they take a pretty good fee for finding you a place!). Online also posts the highest prices, so I do not suggest checking there.

My best suggestion is to look at the local newspapers, postings on the small shops and in the markets, and just drive around. It it says "A LOUER" it means for rent. Call the number and inquire about the property. You are allowed to try to bargain with the price.

The first apartment my husband and I had when I first moved here was a 1 bedroom furnished apartment with gaz du ville in El Menzah. Rent was 500TDN a month, and we went through an Immoblier so the price was fixed.

The first house in Monastir that my husband and I lived in the owner was asking 500TDN a month. We talked the owner down to 350TDN a month. The main thing is to be considerate but not overly excited.

If I can be of more assistance, please feel free to contact me. Source(s): Have been living in Tunisia 5+ years
