The distance from Enfidha Airport to the north entrance of Enfidha town is about 5 kilometers. The town of Enfidha is located about 100 kilometers away from Tunis, the capital city of Tunisia. The city is strategically located with direct connections to Sousse and Tunis as well as the Gulf of Hammamet. There is a well laid out transportation system for ground connections between the airport and the nearest cities.
Ground transportation options
The airport is serviced by both public and private transportation systems. Public transportation is covered by regularly operated bus services, shuttles and taxis. For those looking for a more comfortable ride into town and for their onward journey in Tunisia with more freedom of mobility there is also the option of hire cars. In contrast to many other African countries where ground transportation leaves a lot to be desired, Tunisia has a well planned out efficient transportation network. From buses, taxis, private cars to trains the services operate on regular schedules and they are comparatively affordable and reliable.
How to get a hire car at the airport
If flexibility in travel is a prime concern for you the best option is to arrange for a rental car. A rent-a-car can be booked either in advance for your trip or on arrival at the airport. There are many car rental agencies operating at the airport providing a good range of services and types of vehicles to suit different tastes and budgets. The car rental booths are located within the arrivals terminal just next to the customs.
Why is a rental car preferred by many?
There are many attractive destinations that can be reached easily from Enfidha. One such prominent destination is Hammamet bordering the North African coastal line. The region is a feast on all senses with its long stretches of sandy beaches, a popular historic Medina complete with a wide range of souvenir shops as well as the newly built stretch of luxury resorts, hotels, shops and marina located in Yasmine Hammamet.
Though some travelers prefer to commute between larger cities in the country by air, travelling by land provides better enjoyment by way of sampling scenic routes, unique local cuisine and charming local hospitality. Visitors with more time to enjoy their stay can venture into unexplored terrains in the Tunisian wilderness and remote parts which are not covered by public transport when they have the advantage of a rental car.
