Tunisia for Desert Foxes - Sunshine and Sand

This fantastic fun in the desert for off-road fans with some experience will show you that the desert has another side to it, aside from dry and dusty.

We start on the Island of Djerba off the coast of Tunisia, from there we will go along and cross the Gulf Bou Grara and over the dam by Zarzis. Berfore we scale the dunes, our group will wait in Matmata and enjoy a special overnight stay in a hotel berber style. It is a luxurious cavern which is well equipped for our stay. During the day we will change our hotel for Berber tents and a a wonderful bath under palm trees in warm spring water at the Oasis Ksar Ghilane

For two days, we go deeper into the desert. As there is no set path or trail here we surf with our Enduro through the sand leaving our trail behind us in the hot desert sands. Have we lost our way? No problem, with our GPS device we find our way to the shore of the salt sea Chott el Jerid, which looks like a shiny mirror in the sunlight.

After all of these great efforts in the desert sun we go from Tozeur at a comfortable pace to the mountain oasis Tamerza. After spending days seeing only various shades of yellow, Ochre and Brown, we now see lively green, freshly picked Dates and other pleasurable sights.

When our bikes reach firm ground again on the sixth day, we will miss that swimming while driving feeling, even when we no longer get sand between our teeth. Every coin has two sides!

The day before we leave for home, we head out to Djerba. It is circa. 200 km of slopes and streets. After this off-road desert trip, we will enjoy a view of the sea and a lively celebration with a gala buffet.
