After breakfast we continue our tour crossing the huge Chott El Jerid, which is a dry salt lake, in the distance you will see the massive Atlas Mountains region which is our next destination. We arrive on the outskirts of Tozeur, one of the largest southern settlements. Here you will visit the town and some of its places of interest. After our brief stop in Tozeur we will transfer from our coach to 4×4 vehicles to continue with the next part of our tour. Our 4×4 convoy will wind its way into the mountain region and our first stop is the small settlement of Chebika. Chebika has two villages, the old and the new. The old village was destroyed by storms, however some of the dwellings and buildings still remain intact. It was built on a around a steep gorge and provides amazing all round scenery. You will have the opportunity to explore this beautiful location where you will see natural springs, a palm oasis and you can also walk through the gorge, a wonderful experience as you cross the small streams and pass small waterfalls. We continue with our 4×4 adventure en route passing the isolated mountain village of Tamerza before rejoining our coach again. We stop for a local lunch in the town of Gafsa before proceeding with our tour. Our next stop is Karouan, the Holy City. Here, more than fifty mosques are clustered within the old medina, however the ninth century Great Mosque is the most impressive. You will have time to visit the rest of the holy city including the Berber Mausoleum and some shopping. At this stage our tour comes to an end and we make our way back to your hotel in Hammamet.
