Tozeur
Tozeur is the oasis capital of Tunisia. It has an International airport with regular flights from Paris and domestic flights from Tunis 5 days a week.

Oasis
Highly enjoyable, especially when visited by horse-drawn carriage.

Sahara Zoo
Located inside the oasis, this zoo is of much lower standard than most Europeans are used to. There is however a Coca-Cola drinking camel that is of some amusement.

Dar Cherait Museum
Apart from the Bardo in Tunis, this is the only museum in Tunisia really worth going out of your way to visit. This fascinating museum, housed in a restored palace, has an extensive collection of pottery, antiques and rooms set up as replicas of scenes from traditional Tunisian life - past and present. Wander about these beautiful scenes richly decorated to show the bedroom of the last bey, a palace scene, a typical kitchen and a Bedouin tent. Museum attendants, dressed as servants of the Bey, add to the atmosphere.

Old City
A delightful and compact medina referred to as Ouled el Hadef. Unique locally traditional architecture uses bricks in relief to create patterns.
