Experience the vast beauty of the Tunisian desert on this two-day expedition that takes you from Djerba into the heart of the Sahara. Your journey begins in the Tataouine region, where you will explore the bustling city center souk before heading to the ancient Berber village of Chenini. Walking through these ruins offers a glimpse into a bygone era, allowing you to appreciate the architectural ingenuity and resilience of the Berber people who once thrived in this rugged landscape.


Continue your adventure toward the ksours and the Roman fort at Ksar Ghilane, a historic site located at the edge of the desert. Here, you will have the rare opportunity to bathe in natural hot thermal springs, providing a refreshing break amidst the arid surroundings. The journey then leads you to the Zmela camp, where you will spend the night in a traditional tent, enjoying the profound silence and the breathtaking view of the stars far from light pollution.


The second day focuses on the unique troglodyte villages of Matmata, famous for their underground dwellings and their role as filming locations for the Star Wars saga. You will explore these fascinating structures and enjoy a traditional lunch at a local home, providing an authentic taste of regional cuisine. This part of the tour bridges the gap between cinematic history and the daily lives of the people who have adapted to this challenging environment for centuries.


Conclude your trip with a visit to the famous Sidi Idriss site, another iconic location used in the filming of Star Wars, before beginning your return journey to Djerba. This two-day experience is designed to immerse you in the culture, history, and natural splendor of the Tunisian desert. By combining adventure with cultural discovery, this tour offers a comprehensive and deeply rewarding way to explore the Sahara and the unique heritage of the surrounding Berber communities.
