Internet in Tunisia: everything you need to know
Tunisia has 79 % internet penetration and over 99 % 4G mobile coverage (source: ITU DataHub, 2024). 5G is rolling out in Tunis and along the coast. An eSIM connects to Ooredoo, Tunisie Telecom or Orange TN on landing at TUN (Tunis), DJE (Djerba) or MIR (Monastir).
- ●4G coverage in all tourist zones (Tunis, Sidi Bou Said, Hammamet, Sousse, Monastir, Mahdia, Djerba, Tabarka) and along the A1 motorway ; decent toward Tozeur and Douz (gates to the Sahara), patchy deep in the desert (Chott el Djerid, Ksar Ghilane).
- ●Average mobile speed ~25–40 Mbps download per Ookla (Q1 2025) ; Ooredoo and Orange TN lead in coverage.
- ●IMPORTANT : VoIP (WhatsApp Voice, FaceTime) works but with variable quality depending on the carrier and time of day. A VPN usually improves stability.
- ●Great for Bolt and inDriver (Tunis), Google Maps, Booking and BIAT / Attijari Bank / Banque de Tunisie mobile banking.
