Enfidha is an access point in northern Sousse Governorate, linking healthcare facilities, the A1 motorway and an international airport. Patients may need transport to a Sousse university hospital, Tunis or the airport. Based in Monastir, EMS arranges planned medical transport subject to availability.
Hospitals in Enfidha and Kalaâ Kebira serve patients in the north of the governorate. When the clinical team decides on transfer to Sahloul or Farhat Hached University Hospital in Sousse, it determines the time and monitoring requirements. Specify the sending ward, receiving hospital and clinician approving the transfer.
The A1 motorway bypasses Sousse to the west and links Enfidha, Tunis and Sfax. From central Sousse, allow about 1 h 45 by road to Tunis, excluding breaks and congestion. For a patient lying down, smooth driving and possible breaks should be planned. These times are indicative.
Enfidha-Hammamet International Airport is about 45 km from central Sousse, approximately 40 minutes by road via A1 in light traffic. Check the airport on the ticket. Provide the flight number and reporting time to plan departure from the hotel or hospital with a check-in margin. Airlines may require advance notice or a medical form for sick passengers or those with reduced mobility. See airport transfers and our Enfidha-Hammamet Airport article.
Call EMS on +216 48 024 000 or contact us on WhatsApp, 24/7. A coordinator calls back within 10 minutes. A quote is provided before confirmation. For other destinations, see long-distance medical transport, ambulance in Sousse and request a quote.

In a life-threatening emergency or an acute deterioration, contact the competent public emergency services immediately. A request sent by form or WhatsApp does not confirm a transport booking.

Sousse brings together two university hospitals, a strip of hotels running all the way to Port El Kantaoui and a medina listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site: three settings with very different access constraints. Based in Monastir, the EMS team works regularly in Sousse and the surrounding towns, from Hammam Sousse to Kalâa Kebira, carrying out transfers between facilities, returns home and journeys to the airport.
Find out more02When a patient has a flight to catch or has just landed, the ground leg has to be coordinated precisely with the flight schedule. EMS handles that link between the airport, the care facility and the address concerned.
Find out more03A journey between two regions is not organised like a trip across town: the duration, any stops and the patient's comfort weigh as heavily as the route itself. EMS prepares these transports case by case.
Find out more04There is no single rate for medical transport. The price is built from the actual journey and the resources it requires, which is why we produce a quote for every request.
