Imagine a place where the sands of the desert have been touched by the magic of Hollywood stardust. You've found it with this two-day tour, which'll show you some of Tunisia's most famous film locations. You'll visit a Roman amphitheater, explore underground cave houses, cross a vast salt lake, and discover a secluded oasis at the fringes of the Sahara.
Embark on your sandy adventure at El Jem Colosseum. You'll then head to Matmata, where you'll have lunch and visit the rock-cut cave homes that starred in two Star Wars films. Finish the day in the oasis town of Douz for an overnight stay. This is a great spot to take an optional camel or carriage ride in the desert.
After breakfast, you'll cross Chott el Djerid, a mirage-filled salt lake, before jumping into a 4x4 for a ride to Onk Jemal, where you'll discover the film set city built for Star Wars. After lunch in Gafsa, you'll round off the tour with a photo stop in Kairouan, a great place to take lots of Instagram-worthy pictures.

Absolutely amazing bang for your buck! Go to do so much and the Tour guide was amazing! Unfortunately there are a few hours on both days spent on the couch but the sacrifice is well worth for what you get to do and see! Definitely bring a book and some AirPods/ headphones to watch a movie whilst you travel to each unforgettable location! 10/10 from myself personally. ps- remember to tip everyone!!!

How to be amazed in Tunisia in 2 days. The sites visited are magnificent, the camel ride is excellent and the 4×4 Safari is sensational.
Despite everything, plan on well-deserved tips...

This trip was way better than described or expected. The bus was on time, the tour had many more exciting stops than described and also a two hours desert jeep tour. Intense two days but absolutely worth it! Our guide Mohammad was the best, funny and fluent in 3 languages.

A lot of time is spent on the coach as it takes a lot of time getting from place to place. That being said, the driver and Mo, the guide made it all so much fun. We covered a lot of ground in order to see all this in 2 days. Visiting the Berber family in their troglodyte dwelling was a good experience and I especially loved the 4x4 off roading in the sand desert. The overnight hotel in Douz was very good. Learned a lot about the country of Tunisia. Thank you.

The itinerary was far from exact, 2 hours promised on paper at the coliseum was a rushed 45 mins. The Troglodyte experience was wonderful, totally impressed with the people allowing us to see their homes, just disappointed with another rush of 10 mins. The caravan camel walk was to walk very slowly, with camel owner walking holding the rope of both camels, the camels walked side by side which caused bashing legs together of the two riders, to go a little way onto the very edge of the desert and stop while the camel owners sat on the ground talking to each other for a good 10 minutes then back to where we started. The ride was wonderful, one of my bucket list wishes, shortened considerably from an hour into the desert and the caravan style didn’t exist, just a bundle of people sitting on a bundle of camels. Then to the hotel for the overnight stay, the main light in the room!! If it was switched off the whole electrics switched off, needed to charge phone, so had a very disturbed night sleep, woken at 3:45 by reception wake up call which we didn’t ask for as our phones were set. Rushed breakfast and back on the coach, jeep ride good, not like picture, Star Wars set not like pictures, very run down and falling apart. Then to lunch at 10:30!!! Highlight was the mosque where good prices were shown on souvenir items, then back to the hotel. The itinerary was in no way accurate and made the 2 days a disappointment. My friend and I think that due to the distance covered and the length of times advertised should be a 3 day tour, that way the enjoyment of each stop could be had and would give time to reflect the areas taken to. The whole experience was rush, rush, rush, travelling 1200km is just too much in 2 days, two silly early starts of 5:45 am and 4:30 am. No breakfast on day 1 as early start meant the restaurant in the hotel wasn’t open and no breakfast on day one offered. No water offered at any point. We spent more time on the coach, this wasn’t reflected in the itinerary, 12 hours on the coach and a few hours at the attractions is not enjoyable.

An unforgettable excursion with a dream setting.
On the program: carriage, camel, quad and 4x4 rides (a must do)
Our guide Bassem, a person with whom we never get bored, he is at the top 👍 knows Tunisia like the back of his hand. Many thanks to him for his professionalism. For travel time and survey (it's 1 hour before departure and departure 1 hour after survey 😂😂😂) but I'll leave it to you to see that with him😅
Thank you Bassem and Ali see you soon inshallah 😜
