3 days, 2 nights, a lasting memory

Watch the light change over the dunes, then spend the night at a desert camp. A first overnight stop in a hotel in the south prepares you for the desert the following day.

Day 1

Airport welcome · Journey south

We meet you at the airport and set off south by private transport, with breaks along the way. This day is mainly devoted to the transfer. Any visits depend on your arrival time.

Night 1: a hotel in the Douz area.

Day 2

Douz · Dunes · A night in the Sahara

Discover Douz and its surroundings before heading to the selected camp. As evening approaches, enjoy the changing colours of the sand and the quiet of the desert. Tonight, you sleep in the Sahara.

Night 2: a desert camp. Dinner, bedding, transport to the camp and any activities are specified in your package. We select the camp with the next day's airport transfer in mind.

Day 3

Wake up in the Sahara · Return to the airport

One last look at the dunes, then an early departure for the airport. The day is reserved for the return journey, with the necessary breaks.

A late return flight, at a time agreed with our team.

This 3-day / 2-night itinerary depends on suitable flight times. If your flights do not fit, we can discuss a different itinerary or an additional night.

    A tour followed by a local team

    Tunisia Horizon remains a selective family-style service. We do not accept a high number of tours every year, because we want enough time to prepare, follow and adjust every request carefully.

    • Saif manages the first contact and request follow-up.
    • Monsef brings more than 40 years of tourism experience in Tunisia, speaking Arabic, French, English, German and Italian.
    • Mehdi, an archaeology guide, supports heritage tours in French and English.
    • Depending on the route, we work with carefully selected freelance licensed guides to cover more languages and special interests.

    The same itinerary can be adapted to economy, mid-range or luxury budgets. You choose the comfort level, and we adapt the organization.
