Tunisian Encounters - October 2026
Embark on a nine-day immersive journey that masterfully unifies Tunisia's magnificent history, vibrant modern culture, and breathtaking natural diversity. Your adventure begins in Tunis, where you will immediately plunge into the capital's heritage with a guided exploration of the UNESCO-listed Medina and a hands-on Tunisian Cooking Class, followed by a deep dive into antiquity at the ruins of Carthage and the picturesque, whitewashed streets of Sidi Bou Said.
As the tour moves south, you will explore the country's fascinating regional contrasts. Experience the culinary tradition firsthand with a Harissa-making workshop in Nabeul, then trace centuries of history through the fortified Medinas of Hammamet and Sousse, before witnessing the sheer imperial grandeur of the Roman Amphitheatre of El Jem. The itinerary takes a dramatic turn as you venture into the Dahar mountains, famed for their striking troglodyte architecture. Discover the unique underground homes of Matmata, visit iconic Star Wars filming locations, and enjoy an unforgettable cultural exchange with the empowering Women of GDA El Ferch cooperative.
The core of the experience is an exhilarating Sahara Desert immersion. Leaving the traditional Berber villages behind, you will embark on an exhilarating 4x4 off-road adventure deep into the sweeping dunes of the Grand Erg Oriental. After witnessing a traditional Sahara Bread-Making Demonstration, you will enjoy a delicious dinner and spend a serene night under the stars at a luxury desert camp. Emerging from the sands via the vibrant Douz souk and the shimmering salt flats of Chott el Jerid, the journey concludes in the oasis city of Tozeur. Here, the final days are dedicated to exploring more Star Wars cinematic landscapes and trekking through the surprising beauty of the mountain oases—Chebika, Tamerza, and Mides—before a final day of exploration at the pristine Roman ruins of Sbeitla and the holy, spiritual heart of Tunisia, the Great Mosque of Kairouan, before your return to Tunis. This tour is a comprehensive, authentic, and unforgettable exploration of North Africa's jewel
