"Shopping at the Medina" Tunis Shopping Tip by schlumpf

Tunis Shopping: 14 reviews and 22 photos

 
 

If you are seeking for some craft, then go stra8 to the Medina, the old part of the city, altough here you MUST bargain, (and this in some cases is also funny), because the price they will require you is pretty hight (almost offer abt the 30% of the request).

In a way is pretty stressed and a lot of shops could be also considering a tourist trap as the stuff they are selling are just bullsh**

But in general here you can find a lot of nice stuff to bring home as a memory, i.e. Aghile, ceramics, candels, silk, textile in general, jewels and so on…but remember BARGAIN!!!!

Directions: @ the medina
