Tunisia Handbook, with Libya (Footprint handbooks)

Tunisia is compact in area, intriguingly exotic and varied in scenery and landscape. This handbook, written by the same team who produced the "Morocco Handbook", is a comprehensive guide for all visitors. Containing background and travel information, it includes: coverage of Tunis and the major cities in detail - bazaars, shopping, architecture, where to stay and where to eat; guidance on how to make the most of some of the best beaches in the southern Mediterranean - water sports and recreational facilities; and practical details on the less well-known activities and areas of the country such as exploring the great Chotts in the south by 4-wheel-drive. In addition the guidebook provides practical details to understanding and travelling in Libya, a country of great contrasts. It aims to help the traveller to take advantage of Libya's archaeological wealth of Greek and Roman remains such as Leptis Magna.
