The Desert Taster

KSAR GHILANE - 1 DAY - $85 per person (min. 4 people)

Departure from your hotel in Djerba at 6:30am towards Toujane.   This is an ideal place for great photos with its houses spread around a hillside above a Kasbah.

After a brief photo stop at Toujane continue towards Matmata.   This town is known for its troglodyte (cave) dwellings - underground houses in half-moon shapes.  This is also the site where some scenes of Star Wars were shot.

Departure towards Ksar Ghilaine via Tamezret.   This village overlooks the Nefzaoua plains.  Lunch will be enjoyed in a camp in Ghilaine. Ksar Ghilane is a large oasis of about 140km.  This is where many scenes from the film The English Patient were shot.  It is possible to swim in the hot springs or to stroll on camel back for a better view. 

We then return towards the Medenine  to visit the "ghorfas"  (arched buildings with various levels which were used for storing grain.) 

Continue to hotels in Djerba via the Roman roadway.
