Don't worry, you will not have any problems. Just show respect to the local culture - don't show affection in public, don't touch one another and definitely no pecks on the cheek. You will see Arabic men greet one another with kisses and even walking together holding hands or with arms around one another - fine for them but not for you.

Tunisia is wonderful, enjoy!!
