Home > Departures from Djerba > Tunisian desert tour

An exclusive tour for total immersion in the Tunisian desert

The Sahara Desert, accessible to all but demanding!

This desert tour is a real immersion in one of the last great wild spaces of the Sahara.

This circuit takes you well beyond the classic trails, into a raw and preserved desert.

Every day, you cross breathtaking landscapes, far from any infrastructure, where only the expertise of our guides allows you to move forward in complete safety.


Far from a simple journey, it is an expedition that demands a certain endurance: long crossings in 4x4 on demanding terrain, nights under the stars in simple but authentic comfort, and meticulous organization to guarantee your comfort and safety in one of the most hostile environments in the world.


It is this complex logistics and exclusivity that make this tour a unique and precious experience, reserved for those who want to feel the grandeur of the desert in all its splendor.

Privileged access to the deep desert

This tour takes you far beyond the classic routes, into unspoiled desert areas that are inaccessible without expert logistics.

Few agencies offer this type of experience, because managing transport, bivouacs and extreme conditions requires specific know-how.

Demanding logistics that justify the price

Organizing an expedition in the middle of the desert is a major challenge.

Every detail counts to ensure your safety and comfort.

  • Difficult access: A convoy of sturdy all-terrain vehicles and experienced guides are essential.
     

  • Self-sufficient bivouac: Transport of food, water and equipment for several days in remote areas.
     

  • Safety and expertise: Experienced guides with knowledge of navigation, weather and resource management.

Much more than a circuit: a real adventure

This trip is a total immersion in the immensity of the Sahara.

This is not a simple tourist route, but a unique experience, where each day brings its share of discoveries and challenges.


You will cross unspoiled landscapes in a 4X4, sleep under the stars, and experience life in the middle of the desert.

This expedition requires an open mind and a desire to explore off the beaten track.
