    Travelled with family


    Journée intéressante qui fait découvrir d'autres aspects de la Tunisie : traversée de villages berbères, paysages désertiques impressionnants. Nous avons adoré le contact avec notre chauffeur Saber, avec qui nous avons finalement bien plus appris et bien plus partagé qu'avec le guide officiel de la journée.
