Tunisia Sahara guide
Sahara Tours from Tunis, Sousse and Hammamet
From the north, the route is longer but very complete: Roman heritage, troglodyte homes, dunes, salt lake, mountain oases and holy-city stops can be combined.
El Jem, Matmata, Sabria or Douz overnight, return via scenic stops according to time.
More comfortable pace with Tozeur, Chebika, Tamerza and Chott El Jerid.
Recommended because the route is long and timing must fit sunset, meals and hotel pickups.
