Experience the beauty and serenity of the Sahara desert and meet the people who live there on this two-day adventure. History and geography have blessed Tunisia with a wealth of man-made and natural beauty. Human achievements you’ll see include the vast Roman amphitheater at El Djem, the fascinating Berber troglodyte dwellings at Matmata and one of the holiest cities in Islam – Kairouan. You will also see the delightful architecture of Tozeur, embellished with exquisite brickwork.
Nature’s genius will be all around you in the extraordinary landscapes. Enjoy the lush oases with their feathery palm trees. Ride a camel out into the Sahara to watch the sun set on golden sand dunes. Next morning cross the lunar landscape of a salt pan at sunrise and admire the play of light on the sun-baked crystalline surface.
Not surprisingly, Tunisia’s natural and man-made marvels have been used in several movies. See if you can recognize the settings for films like ‘Gladiator’ and the ‘Star Wars’ series.
This exciting tour includes all meals and comfortable accommodation in a three-star hotel with a swimming pool and other excellent facilities in the desert town of Douz
