Would you like to discover Hammamet through the eyes of a resident and not a tourist? If the answer is yes, keep reading to discover the trip we’ve created so that you can experience daily life there before your relocation!
Our program includes true immersion in the authentic local culture, familiarizing yourself with the cost of living and getting to know other foreigners who have already moved and who can tell you about their experience.
During the trip you can also go to viewings of rental houses selected according to your needs and, if you wish, you can proceed directly with the signing of a long-term rental contract and start the paperwork to become a resident.
Trip to Hammamet
What does the REFRAMED trip to Hammamet include?
1. Get to know the foreign community in Hammamet
Hammamet is home to a significant European community consisting of:
- Professionals and entrepreneurs who work in various industries;
- Foreign families integrated into the social fabric;
- Resident retirees from Europe (French, Italian, etc.).
Through our program, you’ll enjoy experiences designed to facilitate the integration of newcomers, including: cultural gatherings, recreational activities, sports and guided tours to sites of historical, natural and cultural interest.
These chances to socialize are crucial to understanding what relocation entails through direct contact with those who have already embarked on this journey.
2. Discover local historical and cultural heritage
The Medina of Hammamet
The Medina is the historic heart of the city, known for its traditional architecture and white houses with cobalt blue windows and doors.
Hammamet’s Medina is a great place to purchase art and handicrafts and to understand how to interact and exchange information with local merchants.
The Coast of Hammamet
Hammamet’s cityscape is dominated by the Kasbah, an old fortress with a panoramic view of the Mediterranean Sea.
The coast, on the other hand, is defined by the presence of a very wide beach and different experiences waiting to be had, depending on the season. The city is certainly livelier in summer, but there is no shortage of attractions in winter either.
3. The economic aspects of living in Tunisia
Hammamet has an interesting dual nature, juxtaposing the touristy area with residential neighborhoods. Organized trips to local markets, everyday places of interest and city shops will let you:
- Get a better picture of the prices of basic necessities;
- Acquire practical skills for daily life;
- Get to know local suppliers of fresh food.
The REFRAMED trip to Hammamet is designed to help you experience these practical aspects too, which are fundamental to a realistic assessment of the cost of living in Tunisia.
4. Local culture and the language
Our program includes an introduction to Arabic that focuses on practical language skills, with an emphasis on simple everyday phrases, business terminology and useful expressions for socializing.
Importantly, much of the local population also speaks French.
5. Find your rental house in Hammamet
Personalized itineraries where we are at your complete disposal: we organize and accompany you on private real estate viewings and provide assistance with visits and the signing of a long-term rental contract.
Of course, every individual has their own needs and tastes when it comes to choosing a home to live in for at least six months of the year during retirement. That’s why we accompany our clients in person during the search for their dream home and then start the application process and paperwork for relocation to Tunisia.
Lodgings in Hammamet
During your 1 to 2 week trip, you’ll stay in a house and have your own single or double room with a private bathroom. You’ll also have access to all common areas at any time of day: the kitchen, a large living room and an outdoor pool.
You can participate at your leisure in all the local activities offered to discover Hammamet and life in Tunisia, and even find the rental home that’s right for you.
We’ll be there with you throughout the trip: from the moment you step off the plane in Tunis to the moment you return home, our local staff will always be by your side, transfers included!
