Culinary and creative experiences in Tunisia

The Culinary Route of Tunisia brings together professionals and enthusiasts of Tunisian gastronomy to show you Tunisia as you’ve never seen it before!

Representing a wide range of sectors – agriculture, crafts, hospitality, catering, culture, research, NGOs – they all share a passion for their ancestral know-how and a desire to share it in an authentic setting.

From north to south, you’ll visit the Tunisian hinterland, in search of tables d’hôtes, small restaurants and local producers who showcase the best of each region’s local produce.

In Cap Bon, you’ll meet the women who make harissa in the traditional way, the famous condiment that today excites taste buds the world over.

In the Kerkennah Islands, you’ll be introduced to the world of fishermen and the tasty cuisine of octopus.

In the center of the country, land of the olive tree since Antiquity, and on the arid slopes of the Dahar Mountains, you’ll learn to appreciate the many flavors of olives and oil from old-fashioned presses.

The South-West opens the doors to the oases and their sacred fruit, the date. In the north-west, you’ll find new enthusiasts devoted to the artisanal production of all kinds of Mediterranean cheeses.

Last but not least, don’t miss the wineries in the north of the country ; distant heirs to the vineyards of Carthage, they develop top-of-the-range wines inspired by the best French and Italian know-how.
