I'm so glad you went to Kerkannah. I wanted to go there during my travels in Tunisia but unfortunately didn't make it. I'm planning to revisit Tunisia this summer and I'm 100% going. I didn't realise how easy it is to get there. Thanks 🙏
I don't think the man was trying to look forceful. We just don't get much tourists around, so when we do, we want to be generous and make them feel "like home". But unfortunately some of us might insist too hard, it's in our nature ^^ and I understand why it looks off to tourists.
That makes a lot of sense and it is so nice that everyone wants to be so hospitable. He probably didn't have any bad intentions but we just felt uncomfortable 😊

مرحبًا بكم في تونس... تونس قرطاج الابية ... 🇹🇳
Actually Tunisia has many islands ! Kerkennah is well known but the biggest and most famous one is Djerba island ! look it up it's a very good destination if you can go there :D
Not a good season to go to Djerba but yeah I agree with you :)
„Budget backpacker“ tourists will avoid the spring and summer where the prices will be higher. Besides, Those places aren’t great during winter, western regions of the country have more to offer like Tozeur or Tabarka.
@@mouath_14 Tabarka is pretty small it's gonna be freezing this time of year...
If they get to Djerba they could the ancient Roman Sea bridge to Zarzis or the ferry to Medenine, before going to the most southern Roman fort in Ksar Ghilane Oasis which is really other-worldly and beautiful.
Tunisia has 64 islands.
they were checking to see if you're there to illegally travel to italy by sea through the island (a quite common occurence), probably something they doubted seeing how much luggages you had
Yaaaaaap
دولة الكراكوز الأجانب يطلعو و المواطن لا لول
it's so cool that the stress on the beggining of your trip in tunisia as gone, and you feel happy and enjoy the adventure in tunisia :P
Hey guys you're a lovely couple enjoy your stay in Tunisia ! as for the Police /military officials are checking almost everyone that comes out of sfax or out of the island itself ...as it is being known as the place from which many unemployed tunisians attempt to illegally migrate to italy ..its not that far from italy
Thank you! 😊 Thanks for this explanation
All over Tunisia, you will find nice people inviting you to visit their homes, have dinner with them, and spend a night or two with them at home... All of this is normal in Tunisia... Perhaps most Muslim Arabs think like this... and this is very normal in Tunisia.
I am not from Sfax but i assume that old guy didn't try to force you or he had some bad background, Sfax is not a touristic city so as a part of hospitality they are glad to see someone foreigner arriving there. Second point you really didn't see nothing from Kerkennah you just walked around the port the island have much more to show.
You should've spent the night... It's so calm outside the high season and charming ... You could've got a whole beach just for you two
so coooooooooool !!!!! you got there ! supeeeeeeer happy !!! thank youuuuuuuuuuu !!!!
Welcome to Kerkennah
We wished we had more time to explore Kerkennah! Maybe we will get another chance to explore it more someday ☺
Im from kerkennah and I commented on your first video in Tunisia to go to Kerkennah.hope you liked ❤️🇹🇳
should have eaten a couscous With fish or spaghetti With sea food

About the drama there:
It was because some tunisians use that island yo illegally immigrate to italy .
So the police there is a bit strict about who is going there and always asking for the reson.
Thank you for this explanation 🙌🏼
PLEASE do not consider that police ineraction to be common in check-points in Tunisia. The ferry check-up in Kerkennah is RENOWNED in Tunisia for being "hot" because a lot of young men (and women and children) from everywhere in the country going there to find a "burner" boat trip and illegally immigrate to Europe... There's quite a few press articles about the issue.
You should check out Djerba, and maybe Zarzis if you want the small town experience. Zarzis has a small medina (with a very ancient Muslim and Jewish community) and there's THE BEST wood-fired pizza in the South there that's called "Lampadosa".
Thanks so much for your explanation of our interaction with the police. That makes more sense. Thanks for these recommendations :)
Welcome in my home town guys 🥰🥰 Enjoy and take care ❤❤

You guys have to try couscous and mloukhiya
Glad you listened to your gut....can't be too trusting however nice people may appear! Xx
We are still happy with that decision when we look back on it, its better to be safe than sorry 😇
@@SarahandMarek so true 👍 xxx
Kerkena and jerba also a beautiful island
I think that man was honest in his invitation ☺️
Did you walk in Ksar Helel I see some pictures?😅
I was sooo hoping for a djerba video, maybe next time I guess
Kerkennah is the best natural island !! You miss to spend the night there in a hotel and eat nice fish
You haven't seen anything yet... I'm so sad 😞 kerkenah is so beautiful...
There are more than 30 islands in Tunisia.
You should visit Tunisia's other Island, it's called Djerba, it's bigger and more "southern". It has very nice beaches and traditional potery in Gallala, and the "houmet el souk" medina, the ferry is a shorter ride (like 20 minutes) and more regular and there is also a bridge linking it to the mainland that dates back from the Roman empire. Also you should definitely visit the eljem Roman amphitheater , if I'm not mistaken it is the second biggest int the world after the colossuem, it is very impressive
Magnifique ce pays🎉🎉
Welcom to tunisia 🇹🇳❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
About that old guy who invited you to have a dinnner and meet his family actually the tunisian people are so much welcoming and they may seems forsful to invite you but it's the tunisian way to express their kindness so i can assure you as a tunisian that if you've accepted his invitation you would'nt regret it and it will be an opportunity to get to know the tunisian way of expression their feeling .😉

If you have chance visit Mahdia, its very beautiful peninsula. And not far from there. Enjoy!

Your comment make no sense 🐏 ached5lk tousken 7at FIl sahra til vd English hh lol 3aryba
iam very happy !!! yeahhhhhhhhh so cooooool !! ahhahahahaha !!! happy adventureeeeeeeeeeee
You must visit the island of Djerba in the southern east
Hi guys !
In Tunisia w have 3 Island and the famous one IS aruba in south Of Tunisia and his name is '' thé Dream island ''
U better stayed in Monastir and Mahdia they're so much better especially Mahdia and its Touristic Zone, so much relax in Borj Erras.. Highly recommended👍
Nice video 👍
Welcome to Tunisia habibi 🇹🇳🐪🏕️🌴⛵🥰
Ech men wellcome mte3ek 3ajbek lwsa5 😠😠
@@Danzi56 😂😂😂
Woww❤❤❤🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳
You should’ve really visited Mahdia the guy on the train was right and you will like it there !
We went to Mahdia for one night later in our trip and it was amazing just like he said it would be😍
Can you please go to sousse in tunisia ?
It is very wonderful
You have to go to Djerba now :p Mahdia is not a bad idea at all too
The port is located on the edge of the island and serves just for fishing and to get to sfax, the towns and the tourist area are about 20 to 30 kilometers away, you could have used local transportation to get there. You definitely should have done some more research 😔
You should've spent a day in Monastir guys cuz it's one of the prettiest and most touristic cities in Tunisia and believe me you wouldn't regret it.
You should visit Djerba ! u cant go to the south without visiting Djerba!
I m from Tunisia and living in Monastir. I m really discovering Tunisia with you. I am waiting a video of Monastir.
I doubt Marek saw military personnel in the altercation. They were 99% national guard guys which are more like cops but most units dress in camouflage as they are technically para-military.
Nice video guys, Marek playing football 😂😂
unfortunately its your last video in Tunisia would you comeback to Tunisia ?
Thank you! We still have more videos from our time in Tunisia 😁 I would love to say yes but we want to visit as many countries as we can so we probably wouldn't visit again just because we've already visited 😊 We would definitely recommend it to others
There is another island in Tunisia cald Djerba
Not 1 island its more than 2
You need some guidance walking by your self is extremely exhausting even to me us a local
Tunisia has islands more than you think,djerba is the biggest and most famous because of the jewsh pilgremage to one of the oldest synagogs
That's so interesting, I had no idea Tunisia had so many islands
You must go to sousse and see the movenpic hotel it's sooooo beautiful🤯
Lmao. Wrong channel. These guys aren’t about going to fancy posh places. They stay at hostels and take the louage for crying out loud
I think without spending some days in kerkennah, you can not speak about a visit of kerkennah. Please If you have time make a plan of some days to visit a unique place with unique traditions in this planet.
I am planning to go to Sfax , it would be nice to share the address of the hostel . thks
Me too !
you saw nothing from kerkennah , where the docks are, is the worst place on kerkennah nothing to see , on other villages you have museums beaches sights to see sings to do specially after the bridge
jerba ,kerkennah...
Which hostel you have been in sfax ? Thks
We stayed at the youth hostel :)
@@SarahandMarek Do you remember the name ? Thks
There sure are some creeps that you have to beware of , but i think the guy was just trying to be hospitable ( it's some sort of Arab hospitality) , he thinks that he should insist so you won't feel shy , to make you feel welcomed . Yes it's a thing , but he was just trying to be nice . Cultures clash sometimes x)
Visit djerba and matmata
Thanks for your recommendation 😁
💖💖💖🇹🇳
I don’t blame you for not going with the guy that invited you to his house but tunisian people in general and sfaxien in particular are very friendly and harmless but as i said I don’t blame you for declining his invitation
Safety come first
I hope you be able to go to the other island called Jerba it’s a cool island and more touristic
يا جبري يا بوهالي علاش ما تكتبش بالفرنسيه يا جبري احنا هنا في تونس مناش في المملكه المتحدة يا جبري
why there is no more Bambelouni :(
I want more 😭 its so good!
I am getting the gist that your trying to say that south Africa is saver than Tunisia by saying that you have (learned the hard way) and we all know how dangerous south Africa is
This one video came across as a little condescending , however you are always welcome to Tunisia and your safety is our duty towards you, your safety is never guaranty even in that safest places on earth
Hey there :) we meant that we learned that lesson the hard way back home in South Africa 😄 we felt safe our entire trip in Tunisia 😁
There is nothing they said that hinted to that. Either your english is not good enough at which point maybe learn in a humble way and may dont embarrass yourself and us with you by attacking suck nice people with dumb accusations
If an old man try to interact with you, 90% he is a scammer, because most old men are not educated or they don't care. Anyway, try to contact with the youth, I am pretty sure they will be happy to speak to you.
If u still in Tunisia it's good to visit Ain-Drahem or tabarka, surch a beautful place surrended by mountain and trees .
Thanks for your recommendation. We visited Ain Drahem before we left Tunisia and it was really beautiful!
@@SarahandMarek Yes it's beautiful and peaceful place that u will not find too much things about it on the Internet.
Hope your trip was good one .
Thank you
❤️👌🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳💝
Clickbait, I was actually excited to see the Island!
So were we! 😭
Check passport is a normal action by guard patrol not a military .you 🤗 welcome to the drama 🤣
Another wonderful vlog mam love from Pakistan 🙂
🥰🥰👍
Wait! You made it to the island with the intention to turn right back same day???? Hummm!
Major Mistake number one: You chose Sfax over Mehdia ( Major mistake Especially considering how close you were)
Major Mistake number 2 is you arrive in the island ( arguably the best part of Sfax region) and turn back within like an hour? it is not like you guys..Kerkenah is so beautiful and you went to the port? then managed to judge it based on the port staton area?! That is not like you guys to do that, thats why I am puzzled.
You guys are so well traveled and so polite and cultured, you are nothing like some Americans this makes me think ok who are not not at all well traveled or cultured, who mostly take cruises instead of actually travel. The cruise ship stops in many countries/island countries for like a couple of hours. People only see the port and do one tiny cheesy activity, 2 hours later they are on to another country...then they go back home and say I visited these countries and start giving you their impression on the country and its people and culture, and I'm like how the f??
So your 5 mins in Kerkenah made me think of that ( It was in no way a comparaison with Americans, you guys are amazing and nothing like)
I think you should simply turn back and do another video with both Kerkenah and Mahdia on. If you do this and regret I will personally pay for the money and time spent on those 2 days! ( so keep your receipts!)
On the other hand, what you guys said at the end about gut feeling, is very important, very wise, very true and very much a proof of well traveled people!
Nice video 👍
Just to clarify few things.
Tunisia has over 45 Islands
From the Far North, You have the Archipelago of Galite 150 km South of Sardinia and 80 km North of Tabarka.
And to the South you have the Island of Djerba.
And have other islands in Tunis, Nabeul, Monastir, Sfax, Medninne……
The Charfia is an old Amazigh-Berber fishing technique only in Tunisia.
Other countries may have adopted the same technique.
Regarding the name of the Islands of Kerkenah i’ve to do some research on that one.
Can’t be Roman that’s for sure.
Typical Roman they invade destroy the town, Rebuilt it again and give it a Roman name then say ; This is a Roman town or city 😂😂😂
Tunisia has 60 Islands and specially djerba the biggest island in North Africa what a dumb title
We had no idea that Tunisia had so many islands 😯
the island is knowned for illegal people who goes to europe that's why there's a lot of control ;)
Our country has more than 40 islands not just one 😅🤣🤣🤣
The military surveillance and control over kerknah is not due to your camera but to avoid the illegal immigration towards Europe..in fact,kerknah is the main spot from which those illegal migration's waves towards Europe initiate
For the old man who suggested to have you as guests ,if he's a Tunisian there is nothing to be afraid of it's just a way to show you his hospitality...Tunisians are very hospitable especially the southerners so don't worry about your safety among us but be careful of none Tunisians especially those Sub-Saharans who invaded recently our country in masses sfax is suffering due to them and yeah they are very dangerous so be vigilant
It's such a loss not to have a whole tour in the island despite all the tiresome of the transport and the movement...you did just watch the ferry not the island 😏🤣🤣

Thanks so much for all this info! 😊 I had no idea that Tunisia had so many islands 😮
You two still have no idea what you're doing no offense
This country is so dull
Aha good joke!
I am Tunisian and for the most part I agree and most Tunisians agree too thats why they want to get the hell out. However if tpu have money its far from dull and if you are there on summers it is Far away from dull even if wirh a limited budget
