Buses run to Kairouan from the major cities, Tunis, Sousse, and Sfax. Note that touts from the carpets shops have been known to board the bus a few kilometres outside the city and befriend tourists to lure them into their shops, it is good to be aware of this fact.
Louages run from many destinations into Kairouan; these are probably the best and most frequent way to get into the city.
Kairouan is not located on a train line.
The stations for both busses and Louages are to the North West of the Medina. Though they may well drop you off at a Medina Gate if requested.
