Went to Hammamet years ago. Hotel was very clean and good standard of food. Full of French and Germans.......

Russians travel everywhere we do, so not possible to say they won't be there.... we loved Tunisian food when we went there some years back.

[ummmm]

I went to where Craft went. The hotel was lovely but outside the resort was really poor. Poor as in monetary poor.

We went to Kerkennah - almost unoccupied island an hour's ferry ride of Sfax. Brilliant if you want nothing to do! http://www.holidaywatchdog.com/14677-Kerkennah-Grand_Hotel-Holiday-Review.html

They say Djerba is nice - further south island. Never been!

We went to Port El-Kantaoui quite a few years ago and really enjoyed it. It's probably much bigger now than when we went but there was plenty to do. The market at Sousse is well worth a visit.
The only problem for me was the beer. They only allowed local beers (may have changed as well) which were only 2% proof and so you filled up on gas before there was any effect.

Are you allowed to say "no Russians" in this politically correct world..

[AlwaysConfused]

I wouldn't recommend you go anywhere all inclusive if you are after good food. Riu hotels can just pass as edible, although the riu's I've been to tend to be full of German and Russian holidaymakers

[boxtops]

I wouldn't go all inclusive either if you want good local food - we like to explore and eat in restaurants where the locals eat. I've never ever been all-inclusive.

I agree with boxtops - life's too short to go all inclusive - get out there and explore. Now and again you get rubbish but mostly delicious.
