Discover the drama and beauty of Tunisia and experience one of the world’s most spectacular train journeys on this two-day adventure tour. Explore deserts and dunes, dry salt pans and lush green oases. See the eco-homes of the indigenous Berbers, the massive creations of the Romans and the beautiful architecture of the Islamic golden age. Tour the vast amphitheater at El Djem – nearly as big as the Coliseum in Rome and better preserved. See the fascinating Berber troglodyte dwellings at Matmata and the delightful architecture of Tozeur. Visit Kairouan, the holiest Islamic site in North Africa.
Clamber onto a camel and venture into the Sahara to watch sand dunes glowing in the sunset. Next morning cross the lunar landscape of a salt pan at sunrise and admire the play of light on the sun-baked crystalline surface.
Gaze at some of the most stunning scenery in Tunisia when you board the vintage Red Lizard train for a thrilling journey along the Thelja gorge. The train returns along the same route giving you a second chance to take pictures of beauty spots you missed the first time!
This exciting tour includes all meals and comfortable accommodation in a three-star hotel with a swimming pool in the desert town of Douz
