Getting around
A practical guide to Hammamet notes that taxis are legally required to switch on the meter and charge the fixed metered rate, which is worth knowing since not every driver will offer it upfront. Their safety advice, particularly for evening travel or moving through busier parts of the medina, was to use registered taxis rather than unmarked cars, keep an eye on belongings in crowded medina alleys, and avoid carrying large amounts of cash at once.
