2-Day Sahara Tour with Desert Camp Night

This is our classic two-day Sahara circuit with one change that changes everything: instead of a hotel, the night is spent in a desert camp — dinner cooked over the fire, a tent among the dunes, and the kind of sky you only get with no town for miles. Travellers tell us afterwards it was the highlight of their whole stay.

The route is the proven one: across the Chott el Jerid salt lake to Tozeur, up to the mountain oasis at Chebika, then to Douz where the tarmac ends. The vehicle is yours alone, so you stop when something deserves it. The camp is confirmed with your dates when you book; its charge is per person and shown before you confirm.

What you see

• Tozeur — a desert oasis of patterned brickwork, its palm grove fed by hundreds of springs
• Chott el-Jerid — a salt lake so flat and bright it produces mirages across the whole crossing
• Douz & the Dunes — the gateway to the Sahara, where the tarmac stops and the erg begins
• Chebika — a mountain oasis where a spring runs through a gorge above the salt flats
