Other Tourist Scams in Sousse

Souvenir Pottery Fake Authenticity Upsell

Vendors in the Sousse medina near Bab el-Firenj and Rue de Paris sell factory-made pottery and ceramics labelled as traditional Nabeul or Sejnane handcraft, charging artisanal prices. When challenged, sellers produce printed certificates or claim a family workshop origin story. The actual items are mass-produced in industrial workshops and available at a fraction of the price in Tunis wholesale markets.
