Day 1

Tunis - El Jem - Matmata - Douz

You'll be picked up from Tunis and we'll head to El Jem Amphitheater, the largest Roman monument in Africa and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, notably built for spectator events. It is an outstanding representation to Roman architecture built entirely of stone blocks, with no foundations and free-standing. After exploring the fascinating history of the amphitheater, we'll have time for lunch and drive to Matmata for a visit of a unique Berber cave home, followed by a panoramic view of Tamezret where you can enjoy an authentic almond Berber tea. In the evening, we'll reach Douz, known as the Gateway to Sahara, for dinner and check-in at your hotel. 

Day 2

Douz - Sahara Desert Camp

After breakfast, we'll depart for a thrilling jeep excursion or a peaceful camel ride. You'll enjoy a tasty lunch in Douz before arriving at your luxurious Sahara desert campsite. Experience the tranquility, where you can escape the chaos of daily routine and indulge in the captivating sand dunes, while enjoying all the comforts of home. Take a moment to unwind and rejuvenate while admiring the breathtaking views that will stay with you forever. In the evening, you can witness the preparation of local flatbread cooked in the hot sand, savor a delicious dinner and stargaze under the beautiful night sky by a bonfire.

Day 3

Chott El Jerid - Tozeur - Eden Palm Oasis - Chebika - Tamerza - Star Wars Movie Sets

After breakfast in the desert, we'll drive to Tozeur through the Chott El Jerid salt desert - the largest salt flats in Sahara. We'll stop for a photo. Upon reaching Tozeur, you will enjoy a carriage ride through the lush and scenic Eden Palm oasis. It's beyond imaginations with over 400,000 trees - mostly date palm but also, banana and pomegranate trees. You will learn about the production of dates and do dates tasting. A delicious three-course lunch will be served at the lush and extraordinary garden of Eden Palm. After lunch, you'll be taken by a 4x4 vehicle to the oases of Chebika & Tamerza, Mides Canyon, and Star Wars movie sets. In Chebika, a local guide can take you on a 40-minute walk to a waterfall. After a climb up the mountain, you will be rewarded with a spectacular view overlooking the oasis. Tamerza is the largest mountain oasis in Tunisia, where you can enjoy a refreshing swim under the waterfall should you wish to. Your excursion will continue to Star Wars filming locations deep in the dunes, including Ong Jemel, named after a large rock shaped like a camel. The beautiful Mides canyon is immediately recognizable as the background for the pod race in Star Wars. At the end, we'll drive back to Tozeur for check-in and dinner at your hotel.
