KSAR GHILANE - 1 NIGHT 2 DAYS - $125 per person (min 4 people)


DAY 1
Departure is from your hotel in Djerba at 6:30 towards Medinine via the Roman Causeway. Visit the "ghorfas"  (arched buildings of various levels which were used for storing grain.)  Also of interest will be a visit to original Berber villages and sites. 
Lunch will be enjoyed in a typical troglodytic (cae-like) house. After lunch continue towards Ksar Ghilane via a sand trail, crossing part of the desert.  Ksar Ghilane is a large oasis of about 140km.  This is where many scenes from the film The English Patient was shot.  You can choose to either swim in the hot springs or marvel at the red sand dunes from the back of a camel.  The evening meal will be served in a Berber tent in Ksar Ghilane.

DAY 2
The morning departure is via a different sand trail towards Tataouine (centre known for its spices.) Here lunch will be enjoyed in a restaurant.  Other Berber villages will also be visited in Chenini (known for its hill villages) and Douiret .
Return to Jerba via the ferry at Ajim.
