The Tunisian Model
W
hat should be retained from the “Jasmine Revolution”? Decidedly that the Tunisians are realistic and never lose sight of the basics, namely the standard of living. They understood that only by setting up a calm and peaceful democracy will it be possible to have a well-balanced economic development which will have a beneficial effect on everyone’s well being. This explains why the business world played such a major role in political transition. It was in fact the employers and workers’ trade unions who led the “National Dialogue” as it is known here and made it a success. It is this dialogue which led to the government
6
of technocrats, many of whom come themselves from the business world. The good international classifications obtained for the standard of living and the business environment bear witness to this Tunisian specificity. Tunisia is indeed in the lead in the Maghreb in the latest “Social Progress Index” and “Doing Business” classifications. By choosing Tunisia for your future events, you would indeed be validating this model as well as the advantages of a destination which we invite you to discover or to re-discover. You will see that all the necessary equipment for congresses and events has been constantly evolving, and this is particularly true of the hotel
services. This year several international hotel chains announced that they will be welcoming guests at namely the Marriott in Sousse, Hilton, Four Seasons and the Kempinski in Tunis. The Radisson Blu, which opened a hotel in Hammamet in 2013 after its two hotels in Djerba, will open four more in Sousse, Monastir and Tunis. The same goes for Movenpick which is coming soon to Tunis, after Sousse and Gammarth. So do not hesitate and the time is now right to re-contact your listening partner agencies which can craft your dream programme even more efficiently than ever before.

Under the sign of Modernity
T
unisian modernity has its roots in one-and-a-half century of a reformist movement. From the middle of the XIXth century, the country was already avant-garde in the Arab world by abolishing slavery and promulgating a Constitution. The university of the Ezzitouna mosque in Tunis stood out due to its progressist interpretations of Islam. Thinkers like Kheireddine and Tahar Haddad prompted the reflections on the modernisation of the State, the status of women and the social question. In Tunisia this lead to the emergence of the first independent trade union in the Arab world (1924), whilst the Personal Status Code promulgated by Bourguiba ever since Independence abolished polygamy and repudiation, so that women had more-or-less equal rights with men (1956). Tunisia sparked off the Arab Spring and today it stands out in view of the high level of education of its youth, the vitality of civil society and the presence of women in public spaces.

Heritage
I
f today Tunisia is a small country, it is great with its three thousand year-old history. It was the heart of the rich empire of Carthage, a prosperous Roman province, and then the cradle of the Arabo-Islamic civilization in the western Mediterranean. Kairouan was a metropolis with considerable influence and Tunis inherited a long cultural tradition which had been moulded throughout the centuries. The result was in the form of numerous ancient remains such as the El Jem amphitheatre, comparable to the Coliseum in Rome, the Dougga site, a veritable African “Pompey� and other monuments emerged from the High Middle Ages such as the Ribats, the Great Mosque of Kairouan, and the ramparts of Sousse. The capital city itself was left with numerous palaces, medersas and mausoleums whose fine sculptured stone decorations can be admired, marble marquetry, polychrome ceramics and chiseled plaster.

Hospitality
H
ospitality in Tunisia is a hundreds-years-old traditional value. Being open to others, enjoying exchanges and human contact, Tunisians willingly learn several languages in order to welcome foreign visitors. Their tradition includes a series of small gestures to please their guests, such as a well-filled basked of sun-kissed fruit, the “machmoum” jasmine bouquet with its heady fragrance, mint tea with sweetmeats and the orange flower water which is sprinkled on the hands of the guests after a good dinner like an invitation to remember the pleasant moments spent together… “My home is your home”, it is often said, a saying which is being applied literally in the new charming hotels and guest houses of which there are so many dozens, from the Tunis medina to the oases of the South.

Discovery
T
here are so many things to discover in each region of Tunisia ! – such as country traditions and the wonders of nature so that an endless variety of excursions can be programmed. The extensive road network, the highways linking the different regions, the great hotels distributed in the main cities, the all-comfort Sahara camps, the domestic airlines, and sports or cultural theme parks represent so many ways of exploring the different facets of Tunisia within the framework of original programmes. A la carte plans • Foraying into the Great Erg with a bivouac: the true experience of the desert, the magical atmosphere of the camp, the contact with camelriders-guides, heirs of the great nomads… • The Medinas: Their alleyways provoke an immediate feeling of strangeness – even though modernity has invaded them gaily. • The Berber villages: An introduction to the rustic life of the villages isolated in fields, steppes or perched on rocky peaks (like Takrouna near Hammamet or Chenini in the south-east). In the program: discovery of handicrafts, donkey ride, meal under a tent… • The small coastal towns: Deep blue doors, white walls, alleyways permeated with breezes from the sea, small towns like El Haouaria in Cap Bon, or Hergla near Sousse, enjoy an indisputable charm. • The traditions of Djerba: In Djerba you’ll find numerous traditional underground oil mills, one of which has been restored for visits. Djerba Explore park presents scenes of all aspects of everyday life in the menzels (typical rural estates of Djerba). • The archaeological sites: Often situated in the middle of the countryside, Tunisia’s remarkable archaeological sites offer the amazing spectacle of entire cities with all their components – enormous monuments still standing, paved Roman streets, mosaic pavements… – rising up facing the sea or in splendid verdant landscapes…

ozeur and Nefta are desert medinas nestling among boundless palmgroves where a delightfully cool atmosphere reigns in the undergrowth. Main towns of the Jerid region (“palm tree country�), situated in a natural corridor linking the extreme south of Morocco with southern Egypt, they once represented major caravan stages at the same time as drawing their wealth from their immense oases of date palms irrigated by dozens of streams. The architecture of the Jerid offers a very unusual aspect and a pleasant atmosphere due to the high walls, the numerous covered passages and the almost exclusive use of palm trunks and golden bricks forming relief patterns – combinations of lozenges and chevrons. All around, a majestic landscape of barren plateaux, a mere few minutes from the blond dunes of the Sahara.

At its doors, the districts built in the early part of the 20th century are among the most typical of the capital. Important town in history, Tunis displays remarkable monuments. At the same time, it gave itself the means of becoming a modern metropolis. New districts grow like mushrooms with their residential dwellings, offices of companies and their commercial centers.

The Coasts of Carthage
T
he turquoise bay of the Coasts of Carthage spread out about fifteen kilometers from Tunis. The village of Sidi Bou Saïd, an ancient summer resort for the inhabitants of Tunis, dominates the sea from its hilltop location. Its charming cobbled streets, famous Moorish cafes and blue and white houses make it a charming place for a stroll, combining simplicity and refinement, sophistication and wild nature. You can also admire the extraordinary Tunisian-style palace built in the 1920s by Baron Rodolphe d’Erlanger, its gardens and sumptuous interior decoration. Carthage, an attractive residential town, is built over the remains of one of the most glorious cities of Antiquity, founded by the Phoenicians in the ninth century BC: Punic houses, Roman baths, theater, Christian basilicas… A few minutes away, the hill and endless beaches of Gammarth concentrate the luxury hotels, discos and leisure spots. The region has two golf courses.

Acropolium de Carthage The former Saint-Louis cathedral is an imposing edifice which overlooks all Carthage. Built in 1894 in a Byzantino-Moorish style and no longer a place of worship, it has been reconverted into a cultural center ; plastic arts exhibits and a classical music festival, the “Musical October” are held there. Inside, high columns, arches and painted wood ceilings contrast against pale blue walls : a prestigious and unusual decor straddling cultures and eras. To welcome events such as launching new products, gala evenings, exhibitions… Area: 1,800 m2 - Capacity: 600 seats (banquet or show) Tel. : 71 733 866 - Fax : 71 733 555
