El Jem Coliseum) and medieval Islamic cities all with their own special atmosphere
and magic.
Enroute
we visit Berber heartlands with their hill oasis villages and fortified granaries.
We explore an enchanting
oasis town at the fringe of the Northern Sahara which is one of the most extensive
ancient caravan routes still in use. We
continue north along the edge of the desert near Algeria to the mountains of central
Tunisia. Enroute we visit Troglodyte villages amidst weird lunar landscapes. Our

BIKING PROFILE:
Riding
is entirely on sufaced roads.
A route designed by John Fulton from
experience gained over 25 Years leading adventure tours in Europe, Asia, Middle
East, and Morocco. Our route takes in Tunisia's many moods and landscapes,
the coast, mountains, and the world's greatest desert - the Sahara.

The Berber people are friendly and drivers are courteous. Roads are quiet, surfaced
and generally in good condition. Driving conditions in Tunisia are exciting and
challenging due to the varied terrain, dry atmospheric conditions and strong sunlight.

We
schedule optional rest days along the Mediterranean Coast to relax on the beach
and or explore. 
Distances
vary from 100 miles to 250 miles. A
typical day's riding starts at 8am and we reach our destination around 4pm.
