Cheap car rentals in Tunis
KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Tunis
- For swift navigation in your cheap car rentals in Tunis, here are a few of the key roads. The Autoroute A1 extends from Bizerte to Gabes in the south, while the Autoroute A4 links Tunis to the Mediterranean port city of Sfax in the north. The A3 links Tunis with Sousse, while the A5 links the capital with Bizerte; both of these motorways are among the most important in the country. The airport in Tunis and the city of Kairouan are both accessible through the Autoroute A7, a major east-west roadway. In addition, the Autoroute A1 and the Autoroute A8 link Tunis with the airport at Tunis-Carthage.
- If you are looking for a smooth traffic flow in your cheap car rentals in Tunis, consider driving on any of the city's toll highways. The Autoroute A1 is the principal toll road, connecting the capital city of Tunis with the eastern seaside city of Sfax. This is a four-lane, divided highway and the country's most commonly used toll road. In addition to the Autoroute A3, which connects Tunis to Bizerte, there is also the Autoroute A4, which connects Tunis to Sousse. Modern toll collection systems are installed on all of these Tunis's toll roads for the convenience of drivers.
- You need to be at least 21 years old to rent a car from Tunis car rentals. In addition to your passport, you'll need to show your valid Canadian driver's licence. The car rental provider may also want a credit card or international driving permit as extra pieces of identification. In certain cases, you may also have to provide evidence of insurance and submit a deposit before renting a car. Verify with the rental operator ahead of time what forms of payment are allowed. Some car rental operators may further charge a surcharge to drivers who are under the age of 25.
- There’s no better way to explore this sprawling Tunisian capital than with a car. By arranging a car hire in Tunis, you have the freedom to do things on your own terms. Discover the centuries-old Medina and experience the souks for a sensory extravaganza. The Bardo Museum houses a world-renowned collection of ancient mosaics, or you can drive out to La Goulette, a port suburb offering ocean views and golden beaches away from the hustle and bustle of the centre. Around 10 miles outside of Tunis lies the ruins of the ancient city of Carthage. Today, it’s a world-famous archaeological wonder and UNESCO world heritage site that’s unmissable when travelling to Tunis.
- The Tunis-Carthage International Airport is a short 5-mile drive from the Medina of Tunis. In the arrival hall of the airport, you’ll find a wide selection of top car hire firms. The likes of Hertz, Avis, Sixt and Budget will set you up with your Tunis car hire in no time. Exit the airport and take the A1 motorway directly into the city centre. The journey time is approximately 15min, taking into account the usual traffic.
- Driving in Tunis can be rather chaotic, although an experience that’s for sure. Rules of the road are generally not followed in the same way they are in the UK. You will have to pay extra attention to cars and scooters passing from either side as well as pedestrians crossing the road and dodging through traffic without warning. Motorways are well-maintained, although you will have to pay a toll (around £1-£2) on the A1 between Tunis and Sousse. Driving is on the right side of the road and signs are often in both Arabic and French, so it’s advisable to arrange a sat nav with your car hire in Tunis regardless.
- Rush hour tends to be between the hours of 08:00-09:00 and 16:00-18:00, yet traffic in Tunis can be hectic all hours of the day and night. Roads such as the A1 heading in and out of Tunis are usually pretty clear and make for more pleasant driving between cities. Bear in mind that it is extremely hot in Tunis and keeping water in your car at all times is essential.
