The Sahara was the most interesting experience – the true highlight of the Tunisian holliday. From Tozeur we got into jeeps – modified Toyota Land Cruisers- and we went to the Oasis/Waterfall of Chebika at the foothills of the Atlas mountains.
From the Oasis we took the old rout of the Paris-Dakar rally through the sandy desert of Tunisia – you have to do it – it is amazing the scenery is like a movie set in its own and the driving skill shown by the drivers will take the experience to a whole new level – over the dunes – mitigating steep slopes , driving on the side of the hills – where normal vehicles will just tip over but not these and finally stopping on top of a dune from where you can enjoy the sunset in the Sahara and below you see the set of the Star Wars movie – used in the Phantom Menace.

The Coliseum of El Jem is 148 m long, 122 wide and 36 m high and has been used for 2 centuries. Its capacity of 35,000 spectators and its imposing size unquestionably ranks it among the largest amphitheatres in the world. This building dating from the third century, illustrates the greatness of the Roman Empire.

Mediterranean, oriental and African, Tunisian cuisine is elaborate and rich. The specialties vary depending on the region, but in general, the diversity is much more marked in the city, where the dishes are also more sophisticated than in the provinces.

Pasta is the most consumed food, probably for Italian influences and the fact that the country is a big producer of cereals, the pasta being made with durum wheat. They are generally served with tomato sauce, peppers, chickpeas and meat which can be more or less spicy and garlic, or in soups. Among the different varieties, we can note the m’hamsa (lead pasta or pearl pasta), rechta (noodles), nouacers (steamed) and stuffed pasta.

In the land of hospitality, Mediterranean sweetness, scents of jasmine and orange blossom, well-being is deeply rooted in tradition. Water has always been a source of natural beauty and health, from the Roman baths to the hammams of the medinas.

Today, Tunisia is the 2nd country of thalassotherapy in the world, and has nearly 60 centers distributed along its coasts.
