Tunisia - Douz, Tunisia

Displayed:   times.

Long before its "discovery" by visitors Douz has been the outpost of the desert and each Thursday, the market day, nomads arrive for the customary trading and barter of camels, horses, bringing crafts, minerals "desert roses", woven blankets, richly adorned saddles and silver Berber jewelry. From here the Saharan safaris and meharees depart for the Great Erg Oriental in the Tunisian Sahara. For a memorable and genuine experience of desert life specialized tourist agencies and Douz Voyages offer a week long safari on camel back and on foot.
