Desert tours
Why you should visit the Sahara desert and its oases?
The Sahara is the world’s largest and most exotic desert. Teaming with rare wildlife it is the place where legends are born from Lawrence of Arabia to Indiana Jones. Visiting the Sahara is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and many Tunisia visitors regret not having added the Sahara desert and its oases to their travel package.

Important desert exploration areas and sites
Chott el Jerid: Visiting the desert should include the ancient salt flats of Chott el Jerid, whose barren landscapes of impacted salt flats are the remnants of an ancient sea.

Tozeur oasis: the desert can be tamed and the Berber desert dwellers learned to tap underground water to produce the largest of Palm tree fields in an oasis complemented with many other exotic plants and fruit.

Chebika: this is a mountain oasis that punctuates a long and beautiful desert road where you will be rewarded with unique views and waterfalls. This visit will offer you marvellous picture taking opportunities.

Mountaintop oasis of Tamerza and Midès: Star Wars « episode one: the phantom menace » featured this destination in the pod races of young Anakin Skywalker. You can perhaps recall the cliffs and valleys of this unique desert scenery. If George Lucas chose this desert view for his movies, is this not a special destination you should add to the desert sites to visit?

Desert dunes of Nefta: Every image of the Sahara desert contains long swaying sand dunes shaped by a gentle breeze. Most visitors to the Sahara desert ask us to stay the night to see the red and purple sunset over the dunes of powder-thin sand. A couple of hotels can be booked but we recommend adding the Bedouin tent experience to your desert holiday in the desert.

Camel riding and desert camping package excursions
Travel packages can add a camel ride for half a day or a full day. You will be able to discover the desert dunes using Nature’s authentic all terrain vehicle, the camel.

For the most authentic holiday in Tunisia, some tourists prefer to live the Bedouin desert camping package experience, spending several nights in the desert. Accompanied by a professional guide, desert visitors can discover the unique animals and features of the Sahara and get a taste of the ancient Nomad life. Living in a Cloth Bedouin tent, you can indulge in a gourmet meal cooked by your personal chef, bringing that extra luxury touch to your visit in the Saharan desert.

4WD, buggies and quad bike desert safari excursion
Using quality vehicles and equipment and supported by top-notch instructors, off-roading with quadbikes or dune buggies can be an adrenaline rush for desert adventure seekers.
