The spirit of the tour

From east to west, in the footsteps of the sun.

We follow the course of the sun, and with it centuries of Djerbian history: Phoenician, Roman, then Ibadi.

Along the way, the island's crafts: olive oil, once pressed underground, and clay, which you will shape yourself at a master potter's.

At midday, a barbecue picnic surrounded by hundreds of pink flamingos. In the afternoon, we follow a coastline few people know, all the way to the most beautiful sunset on the island, in our eyes.

A guide by your side, a support vehicle behind you. Open to everyone, no training needed.

Total immersion, far from mass tourism.
