There is no add on unfortunately for Tunisia. Here are the charges. 
 

The table below displays how much you’ll be charged for any minutes, texts or data that you use.

Roaming Pay monthly Pay-as-you-go****
Calls to UK* £6.00 £6.00
Calls to Tunisia* £6.00 £6.00
Calls received* £1.50 £1.50
Texts to Tunisia** £1.20 £1.20
Texts to UK** £1.20 £1.20
Picture message (MMS) sent** £0.60 £0.60
Internet and Data (per MB)*** £9.60 £9.60

* Price per minute

** Please note: MMS charges vary. For further information, refer to Terms & Conditions. If you joined or upgraded on or before 20th June 2023 the MMS cost is £0.30 per message for Roaming within EU Bands 1 and 2.

*** Data is charged or deducted in one kilobyte (KB) increments and any part KB used will be rounded up to the nearest KB

**** The charges below will apply to all Pay-as-you-go customers starting from 1st October 2024. Find out more about the current charges here.

I suggest she gets a local roaming SIM and put a spend cap on the account using the iD app.
