3-Day Tunisia Sahara Desert Camel Trek from Douz

My boyfriend and I went on a 3-day trek into the Sahara desert from Douz over New Year's Eve. Our goal was a silent, relaxing start to 2025 close to nature. All of our expectations were fulfilled. Everything was perfectly planned and executed. The food was amazing, and the accommodation was nice and exactly what you would expect. However, the success of the entire tour depends on your guide. We were lucky to have Amir. He is a young Bedouin who is one of the few people who still lives as a true nomad. You can sense his love for the Sahara. He shared many stories about his passion for the desert and his dedication to preserving it. Unlike some other guides, Amir treats his camels like his own children. While some guides treat their animals poorly (even hitting them). Amir's gentle care for his camels was wonderful to witness. This was extremely important to us, as we wanted our vacation to be as sustainable as possible. If you're planning a similar trip, ask for Amir - he's the best choice you can make.

The trip was absolutely stunning: endlessly beautiful landscape, well behaved camels with character, amazing food and above all the best guide we could wish for. I can only recommend and will come back for a longer trek in the desert with Ahmed. Everything was well organized, the camels looked healthy and well taken care of.

This is a great experience for anyone wanting to see another side of life in Tunisia. The camels are very cool and friendly. My guide, Mohammed, was great and made the trip unforgettable. Overall tour is very easy to arrange, you get started immediately from pickup. The camp site is great - very good food and refreshments, nice setup with kitchen, restaurant, tents, area for fire and socializing etc. I would personally suggest the 3-day trek over the 2 day as you are guaranteed one full day in the Sahara.

Super dépaysant 👍 le calme, les beaux paysages, coucher et lever de soleil 🤩, l’accueil au camp 🙏. Très bonne expérience pour le repos, la méditation, l’observation du ciel …. Un grand merci à Mounir (le guide qui vient sur le camp pour voir si tout va bien), à Mounier (responsable du camp) et à Nouri (notre chamelier). Pour une première expérience…. 😍

Une expérience magnifique et inoubliable dans le désert. Des couchers de soleil et un ciel étoilé à couper le souffle ! Le campement est super, avec plus de confort que ce que j'imaginais. Et l'équipe sur place est top, avec une organisation au poil, des repas bien cuisinés (pain de sable excellent !!). Enfin mention spéciale pour notre guide Nouri qui nous a promenés à travers les dunes sur nos dromadaires et nous a fait découvrir un petit bout de chez lui avec beaucoup de gentillesse...

Les sorties sur dromadaires étaient magnifiques, notre chamelier était dévoué, attentionné et sympathique, il était connu de tous les chameliers et bergers berbères. La tente, le lit et les couverture étaient parfaits. Cependant au prix que l'on a payé on s'attendait à avoir un guide, notre chamelier ne parlait ni français ni anglais. Pour les repas, nous aurions apprécié une plus grande variété de fruits pour dessert et petit déjeuner, des dattes dans la région de Douz aurait été de circonstance. Derniers points le responsable n'était pas toujours facile à rejoindre et nous n'avons pas trouvé de serviettes pour la douche.

Très bon accueil, ce soucis de tout bien être et confort, équipe dévoué et présente . Aucune difficulté avec la langue le personnel ce débrouille en anglais et français . Je recommande fortement cette expérience magnifique !

Todo profesionalidad, calidad, organización, atención y mil detalles. Todos los guías han sido espectaculares. Gracias por ayudar a que tengamos una experiencia inolvidable. Sin duda volveremos a Tunisia con vosotros.
