Points forts

Leave the town behind and head deep into the Sahara on a full-day 4x4 expedition from Douz to Tembaine, the twin flat-topped mountains rising from the heart of the Grand Erg Oriental. The drive is part of the adventure: roughly three hours each way across rolling dunes and open desert, with photo stops along the route. At Tembaine, explore the fossil plains and the old desert well, climb the dunes for wide views across the erg, and try sandboarding on the soft slopes. The route runs around the Jbil area, where desert wildlife is sometimes seen. This is a long, remote day for travellers who want the deep Sahara without an overnight stay. Includes Douz hotel pickup and drop-off, 4x4 transport with a local driver-guide, and sandboarding.

About Douz

Douz is an oasis town on the edge of the Sahara in southern Tunisia, a base for camel treks, dunes and salt lakes, known as the gateway to the desert.

Douz lies at the northern edge of the Grand Erg Oriental, the great sand sea of the Sahara, in southern Tunisia, and is surrounded by palm groves that stretch to the first dunes. The Mrazig people, a Bedouin community, settled here, and the town still holds a weekly market where nomads and farmers sell dates, livestock and crafts.
