Tunis is well connected by road to other Tunisian cities. A good motorway connects Tunis with Bizerte in the north, and Hammamet, Monastir and Sousse in the south. The road network in the north is dense but good, while roads in the south are fast being updated, and all major cities and sites are easily reached. A tarmac road leaves Tunis to Tabarka, and then on to Annaba in Algeria. Communal taxis run between Tunis and Annaba, Constantine and Algiers in Algeria.

There is no emergency breakdown service available, although major international car rental companies will provide a replacement car.

The capital has two main bus stations in Tunis. Gare Routière Nord (SNTRI) Bab Saadoun, on the road to Bizerte (tel: (071) 562 299/562 532) has departures to the North and the Northwest of the country, including Bizerte, Tabarka, Sousse, Hammamet and Nabeul. It can only be reached by taxi, the bus stop is too far away if you are carrying luggage. The Gare Routière Sud, Bab el-Fellah (tel: (071) 399 391) has departures for the south, and can be reached by taxi or tram from the centre.
