Tunis → Sidi Bou Said: key facts

Sidi Bou Said from Tunis Airport (TUN) by private transfer: €40 per car (1–3 people) or €60 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 17 km via RN9, roughly 15 min when traffic is light and 15–25 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits in the public arrivals hall (Hall des arrivees) of the main terminal, after border police, baggage reclaim and the customs exit, holding a sign with your name. If your flight uses Terminal 2, the airport runs a free shuttle bus to the main terminal. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

Sidi Bou Said is a hilltop village above the Gulf of Tunis, about 17 km by road from the airport. The route follows the RN9 expressway along the northern shore of Lake Tunis and then the RN10 coastal road through Carthage, climbing the last kilometre up the hill on narrow streets. On summer weekends and holiday evenings the approach roads from La Marsa and Carthage are often busy, as the village is a popular outing for local families.

The historic core of whitewashed houses with blue doors and window grilles is closed to traffic, so cars stop at the car parks and the roundabout at the bottom of the main street, a few minutes' walk below the village square. From there the cobbled main lane leads up past cafes and craft shops to viewpoints over the bay and the marina below. The TGM station lies at the foot of the hill, and Carthage and La Marsa are both only a couple of kilometres away.

Public transport instead: Transtu bus 635 from Tunis-Carthage Airport to Tunis Marine (TGM station) — about 25 min, every hour from the airport, first departure 06:40. Transtu train TGM (Tunis Marine - La Marsa Plage) from Tunis Marine to Sidi Bou Said, first train from Tunis Marine 03:30, last 23:45; every 45 min at peak times (winter 2026-2027 timetable), 1 change. There is no direct public transport from the airport to Sidi Bou Said. The simplest combination is Transtu bus 635 to Tunis Marine and then the TGM light railway towards La Marsa, getting off at Sidi Bou Said station.
