Tunisia!
I am an American living in Tunisia and I love Tunisia very much! The country is so full of history (has been under the rule of Phoenicians, Romans, Arabs, Berbers, Ottomans, Beys, and French; played a significant part in WWII, was the center of the ancient world with Carthage as the capitol, etc) and it has so many beautiful places to visit! It is unlike any other Arab country in that is has a lot of greenery. There are also many historical ruins in just about every part of the country you go to.
The people are so warm and hospitable. They instantly welcome you as one of their own and treat you like family. Tunisia is also a very safe place. There are not many places in this world where a women can walk the streets alone in the middle of the night without fear. Yet I often take late night walks and have never had any problems and have never felt fearful.
Tunisia on a whole is a very safe country. I have lived in Tunis and Monastir and have visited other parts of the country without any problem. I do advise normal safety rules that are applicatable elsewhere, such as not dressing provocatively and to be aware of your surroundings.
The mountain region is breathtaking! There are fantastic views and an the atmosphere is reminiscent of an old town in Switzerland. Absolutely gorgeous! The coast is marvelous. The Sea is clear and picturesque. The midland and south are terrific because they offer you the chance to peek into a forgotten society - one that holds fast to tradition. I have been all over Tunisia and have visited most cities and have loved everyone because they each have their own special charm.
To learn more about Tunisia, I invite you to read any of my blogs, or look at any of my pictures.

Morocco is a marvelous position to flow on holiday, regardless of the truth that, as in Egypt, they are going to attempt to tug you into shops to purchase their stuff, the food is fantastic, only stay away from the water and any ingredients (alongside with salads or culmination) that were washed contained in the water. the elements is amazingly resembling Egypt. the elements in Tunisia is easily stunning, regardless of the truth that the temperatures are of their severe 30's, there's a marvelous cool breeze which keeps you cool continually (if on the coast alongside with port el kantaoui or hammamet or places alongside the north) besides the undeniable fact that, the south is boiling warm and there is no longer as a lot as a breeze. again, stay away from the water. the individuals are very calm and open and could take you with open hands, they are going to attempt to get you to purchase their products, yet haggling is thoroughly proper there and also you are able to continuously decrease expenditures to one/2 of what they are looking for. i could propose you to flow to the Soviva inn in port el Kantaoui, easily stunning position with stunning food and stunning human beings alongside!

I have never been to Tunisia but have been to Morocco many times. It is a very beautiful country, the people are lovely, the food is great.......
Each town/city is different in many ways, there is so much to see and do.

Tunisia. Coincidentally, I'm watching Sky Travel Shop right now, my Daughter and her husband are there right now and we were there last year. Yasmine Hammamet or Port el Kantaoui are excellent areas to visit.

What do you like?
Tunisia is more compact, on the coast there have been heavy ninvestments in tourist infrastrucstre.
Morocco has higher mountains, distances between cities are greater, meaing that you should take more time for travel into account. Try to avoid Tangier as entry port, people there can be quite harrassing.

Both are great, but I prefer Morrocco. More laid back.
