Travel from northern Tunisia to visit the must-see desert sites of the south. In two days, discover the mountain oases of Tozeur, the dunes of Douz, and the amphitheater of El Jem.
Day 1: Departure – El Jem – Matmata – Sabria (desert camp)
Your adventure begins at 6 a.m., when we pick you up directly from your hotel or residence. Get ready to travel through the history, culture, and legends of the desert.
First stop: El Jem. Step into the mighty Roman Empire by exploring one of the best-preserved amphitheaters in the world, a UNESCO World Heritage site that rivals the Colosseum in Rome.
Continue south to the troglodyte village of Matmata, with a stop at the iconic Sidi Driss Hotel, filming location of Star Wars: A New Hope.
Meet the locals and discover how families still live in underground houses carved into the rock. Enjoy a cup of tea with rosemary, honey, and olive oil.
Photo stop in the peaceful Berber village of Tamazret, perched on a ridge above the desert.
Lunch at a traditional local restaurant on the way to the desert.
In the mid-afternoon, arrive at the village of Sabria, where the dunes begin to stretch endlessly across the Sahara.
Settle into a comfortable camp in the dunes for a true off-the-beaten-path getaway.
Optional: Camel ride at sunset, a timeless way to experience the golden silence of the desert.
Watch the preparation of sand bread, baked under embers according to the traditional Bedouin method.
Enjoy a delicious homemade dinner and gather around the campfire to hear stories and stargaze.
Sleep under the stars or retire to your private tent. Here, the Milky Way feels within reach.
Day 2: Sabria – Chott El Jerid – Chebika – Kairouan – Return
Wake up in the crystalline silence of the desert and enjoy breakfast at the camp before hitting the road.
Cross the mysterious Chott El Jerid, the largest salt lake in North Africa, a surreal landscape of shimmering mirages and endless salt flats.
Head north to the magnificent mountain oasis of Chebika, where palm trees grow on the canyon walls and fresh water flows from the rock.
Explore the old abandoned village, hike to a hidden waterfall, and enjoy the cool breeze among the rocks.
On the way back, stop for lunch at a local restaurant, then continue to Kairouan, the holy city of Tunisia.
Admire the exterior of the Great Mosque of Kairouan (visible before 1 p.m.), a masterpiece of Islamic architecture.
Stroll through the enchanting old medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site, where artisans, spices, and history come together.
Return to your hotel with unforgettable memories and a camera full of magic.
