Fringed with golden sandy beaches and encircled by a warm sea, the enchanting island of Djerba is surely one of the world’s most romantic and seductive destinations. Indeed mythology says Djerba was the place where Ulysses nearly lost his soldiers after they had eaten lotus flowers fed them by lovely maidens. The men were so intoxicated by the lotus that they wanted to forget their past lives and stay on the island.
This may be just a fable but Djerba still steals the hearts of all who visit. After arriving by plane you will be whisked off to a five-star hotel. You then get a chance to tour the city in a traditional horse-drawn carriage before being treated to a delicious dinner.
Next day, you have time at leisure to discover the delights of the island: the dazzling white houses with blue cast iron fittings, the colourful markets, the historic mosques and the glorious flowers and trees.
Like Ulysses’ men, you too will be very reluctant to leave this bewitchingly beautiful place
