Taxi & Transport Scams in Hammamet

Taxi Overcharging from Tunis-Carthage Airport

Taxis from Tunis-Carthage Airport to Hammamet (approximately 65 km) should cost around 70–90 TND by meter. Unlicensed and even some licensed drivers offer fixed rates to tourists at 150–200 TND, often claiming the meter is broken or that a "highway toll surcharge" applies. The journey is long enough that the overcharge can be significant, and tourists arriving late at night are most vulnerable.
