Step off the beaten path and into the heart of North Africa with the "Tunisia Expedition," a 12-day adventure tour designed for those seeking authentic cultural immersion and moderate activity. Begin in Tunis, where ancient medinas and the scent of jasmine set an evocative scene. Wander through UNESCO-listed Roman ruins unburdened by crowds, and explore Kairouan’s spiritual treasures.
Venture into the vast desert, trekking over sand dunes and under craggy mountains with local Amazigh guides. Experience life as locals do—spend nights in underground cave dwellings and connect with female artisans who keep Tunisia’s traditions alive. Feast on spicy cuisine that fuses Berber, Italian, and Spanish influences, and marvel at pink-hued salt lakes, palm-fringed oases, and turquoise Mediterranean coasts.
The tour’s unique selling point? An extraordinary blend of cultural encounters, Sahara trekking, and diverse landscapes, offering a rarely seen perspective on this Mediterranean jewel. This trip is perfect for adventurous travelers who crave an unfiltered, richly textured experience of Tunisia.
