#mytraveldiary The Sahara in Tunisia is an extraordinary desert that captivates with its endless sand dunes and serene landscapes. Located near Avenue du Sable, this vast expanse offers a sense of solitude and wonder unlike anywhere else. Visitors can experience camel treks across golden sands, watch stunning sunrises and sunsets, or simply enjoy the quiet beauty of the open desert. Traditional Berber tents and local camps offer an authentic glimpse into desert life, while star filled nights create a magical atmosphere for storytelling and reflection. Adventure seekers can explore dunes on quad bikes or join guided excursions to discover hidden oases. The Sahara in Tunisia is more than a landscape it is a journey into timeless beauty, offering peace, adventure, and a connection to nature that is truly unforgettable.

I caught this moment on my way to see a palm tree oasis in Tunisia.#tunisia

From the ancient charm of the Medina of Tunis to the crystal blues of the Mediterranean Sea and the vast, golden silence of the Sahara desert, my journey through Tunisia has been nothing short of magical. From the beautiful Sidi Bou Said known as the Santorini of Tunis to the relaxing beaches of Hammamet, the spiritual beauty of Kairouan, the ancient vibes of Zaghouan, and the stunning city of Sousse, every stop was rich in culture, history, and heart. I stayed in a humble local home with my Tunisian husband, which allowed me to experience the true essence of Tunisian life. If you have local friends, stay with them for an authentic experience. Otherwise, Tunisia offers many affordable hotels just be sure to book early. A key travel tip: always carry cash. Most local shops and taxis only accept cash; cards are mainly accepted in supermarkets, malls, and some restaurants. Don’t worry if you don’t know anyone Tunisian people are incredibly warm and always happy to help. Embrace the food, the culture, the history and let Tunisia leave a lasting mark on your heart. #travel #couplestrip #tunisianvibes #tunisia #naturalwonders #seascapes #museums #northafrica

When it comes to the name of the "Mars tent", it is from the boss's daughter. In their view, such an innocent desert is so isolated from the world that it is inaccessible and really no different from Mars. The name is also really cool. ~ The boss of the Mars tent is a cool Boy, playing desert in winter and yachting in summer! Every year, the entire symphony orchestra will be moved to the Sahara to have the most romantic symphony concert. Although the tent has no water, no electricity, no net, but the rich boss is still here to prepare a formal three-way candlelight Western dinner for the guests. After dinner, it is the bonfire of the night. Everyone can watch the Galaxy, count the stars, listen to Kidds teacher, starry sky and small class, talk about your predecessor and former predecessors gossip story. ...... Here, there is no secular jealousy, truly isolated from the outside world, the most quiet beauty, the most shocking baptism of nature, which makes me unforgettable in this life. The 24h lost here is really a life that has become poetry. Sahara, I am going to sleep with you tonight~ Good night!

Yeah, this is the Sahara in the dream~
