Smashing Dunes

Tunisia offers spectacular landscapes and showcases the Sahara, one of the most incredible regions in the world. A very tourist-friendly country, Tunisia is also one of the safest in the region.

On this tour you get the max riding in dunes.

On this tour you will experience the best of dune riding and the most authentic desert camp stays.

Difficulty level

This tour is exactly the dune bashing experience you are looking for as advanced Enduro rider. You will ride straight into the dunes and bashing them during 5 full days until you fall off the bike or you run out of fuel. The only limit is your gas tank.

 
Less experienced riders - don't worry, we have easy tracks for you and our tour guides will introduce you to dune bashing step by step. 

You are always close to the service vehicle, a 4x4 pickup with an experienced local, and make a short stop at the camp for a lunch snack. This gives you the opportunity to relax in the camp in the afternoon while the others bash the dunes until sunset.

Authentic Sahara Camps

The tour will occur in stages day-to-day, meaning we will spend three nights in an authentic Sahara camps we build by ourselves. Dining on handmade food cooked by locals and nomads from the region prepared in front of us on the open fire in the desert. The last night in the Sahara we spend in a newly built camp with concrete tents, a good shower and a restaurant. On the second night we camp near the so called "Lost Lake" where you can bath in the warm water.

Off the Grid

Once we are deep into the Sahara, we will officially be "off the grid" - outside the range of any mobile network and away from civilization, leaving us to manage on our own. We'll spend three days in the desert forgetting all things we think that are important and we may not miss, like Facebook and Instagram, E-mails and calls. 

During this time we'll have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience being virtually alone among the dunes of the Sahara, at peace and removed from the modern world.
