Things to do in Djerba Island, Medenine Governorate: The Best Multi-day Tours
A large island, approximately 20 by 20 kilometers, Djerba lies just off the northeastern coast of Africa, in southeastern Tunisia, near the Libyan border. Set on the Gulf of Gabes, the island is known for an eclectic population of residents and tourists, splendid beaches and picturesque villages that feature distinctive, square, whitewashed houses. Houmt Souq is the one large town, with bustling markets and lively outdoor cafes. Djerba, which offers a pirate's castle and fortress-like mosques, is believed to have been the inspiration for Homer's Odyssey. Accessible from the south of Tunisia, a road originally built by the Romans connects the island to the mainland.

Initially I've booked a night tour to the Sahara dessert with Depart Travels, however faith has led this trip to be cancelled due to some technical errors. Instead of turning me down, Aymen has asked me what are on my wish list and has tailor made a trip proposal all for me privately. It wasn't a regret going on this trip. Ive set my expectation to be an average standards, however with the help of Aymen and the friendly locals, who Aymen has arranged for me to meet, have made me experience one of the best adventure I've ever done. Aymen himself drove me and explained each cities and villages we went to. Even after the trip of the day has ended, unlike any other guides who will just abandon you at your hotel, Aymen has invited me out for a beer and to chill the nights. He is a really kind and knowledgable man. I have done everything I've wanted and perhaps more thanks to Depart Travels. I highly recommend people to this agency and especially a tour with Aymen himself. Ps: He is an exceptional driver, especially on the off road dunes of the desert.

Djerba has always been my dream destination. The scenic beaches, the affable folk, sumptuous cuisine, shopping and of course, the legendary Jewish-Arab unity have inspired me tremendously to visit the island. Thanks to Mr.Adel Ben Haj Yedder, founder- Vacances Promo Tunisie, my dream finally came true! Famed for their legendary, VPT arranged everything immaculately from scratch including a chauffeur-guide drive air-conditioned car to escape the scorching but otherwise pleasant Mediterranean summer. Showcasing every one of Djerba's rich treasure, my journey was wholesome and memorable with the renowned Houmt Souk market with kaleidoscopes of color mesmerizing me, the Berber pottery market of Guellala, Hara Seguira and the quaint Jewish homes and eateries and of course, the grand La Ghriba Synagogue...it feels as if it was just yesterday! The Guellala Museum shocases Djerba's intriguing history while the Borj El Kebir fortress presents a panoramic view of the ocean from its zenith. Soirees with breathtaking folkloric dance and acrobatics performances and the pulsating music of the Berbers was the ultimate treat while on Djerba Island! With representatives fluent in English, French and Arabic, visitors form around the world are more than satisfied with VPT's overall services and professionalism.
