Tunisia Essentials — 7 days
One week, one private vehicle, and a country that finally joins up end to end.
A Tunisia Ride tour means one vehicle carrying your group and nobody else, a driver who already knows the roads, and a plan settled with you before the first morning. Twelve routes are laid out here, from three days to ten, between the gulf of Tunis and the dunes at Douz.
Every page sets out the day-by-day run, what is included, what is not, and the advice that genuinely matters for the season you travel in. None of it is fixed: a stop moves, stretches or disappears to suit your dates, your children, your luggage and how far you really want to walk.
Costing is worked out for your party alone, one enquiry at a time: on request.

The routes that cross several regions and let the country finally join up in your head. These are the ones to take on a first visit, or on a return trip when you have the days for it at last.

One week, one private vehicle, and a country that finally joins up end to end.

Our most complete route, driven end to end: Mediterranean to dunes, in a vehicle nobody else shares.

Eight unhurried days reading Tunisia layer by layer, from Punic Carthage to the Ottoman medinas, with time to linger wherever a place holds you.

Five days among Roman and Numidian sites, in a vehicle kept for your group alone, from Carthage down to El Jem.
Shorter loops built around one coast, one range of hills, one oasis or one stretch of desert. They slot in before or after a week by the sea, and they combine happily with one another.

Four days in a Tunisia of water and woodland: bird-filled lakes, cork oaks, coral coves and mountain villages, nowhere near the desert everyone expects.

Three days of cliffs, hot springs and pottery, barely an hour out of Tunis.

Four days of ribats, medinas and olive country, worked from a single base with a vehicle kept for your group.

Four days that string together Tozeur's palm groves, the mountain oases of Chebika, Tamerza and Mides, the salt crossing of Chott el Jerid and the dune edge at Douz — nobody in the vehicle but your own group.

Three days to reach the far end of the track: the oasis of Ksar Ghilane, its hot spring under the palms, the Roman fort of Tisavar and the silence of the Grand Erg Oriental — your group alone in the vehicle.

Four days across Tunisia's south-east in a vehicle kept for your group alone — fortified granaries, the ridges of the Dahar, villages that are still lived in.

Island first, mainland after: Houmt Souk, El Ghriba and the potteries, then the causeway to Medenine, Tataouine and the ksour, in a vehicle kept for you.
None of those eleven quite lands? Then we start from your own list, your dates and whatever you have to work around.

Tell us the trip you actually want, and the route, the driving and the pace get built around it.
Your dates, how many of you there are and the places you refuse to miss: that is enough for us to come back with a written route and a costing.
