INTRODUCTION TO THE SAHARA

Tunisia, discover this 8-day trip

Trip Description

A week on the edge of winter or for a first approach to the desert. It is called the region of the Marabouts and also that of the ancient oases. It is a tide of sand all crested with gold that rises from the Sahara, covering little by little the springs and the oases in the direction of the Tunisian Great South. It is the domain of dunes and silence, the discovery of a new dimension... It is the country of Berber nomads, small lost oases, sandy villages, forgotten ... A week of sun in the heart of winter, a time for oneself in a universe of absolute, beauty and resourcing
