What we saw made us want to schedule a whole other trip just to spend more time on Djerba! - Great experience. Our driver met our flight at the airport, took us to all our stops, gave us clear directions on what to do and when to be back at each rendezvous point, answered our questions but otherwise left us alone- perfect for us! When one of our scheduled attractions wasn't open as scheduled, he checked with them, found out they were opening later, and rearranged the day's itinerary to make sure we could be there when it was open. We finished quicker than scheduled, so he added a drive by some local sights to fill the time, then even took us to a store so we could buy snacks for the flight home. The stops are amazing- the Lalla Hadria museum is stunning. The "crocodile farm" is actually a beautifully kept modern zoo with huge habitat enclosures for four reptile species. El Ghriba synagogue was gorgeous and peaceful. The pottery workshop and tour was a ton of fun- we got to go down in the mine to see how the clay is dug, then processed, and then we saw a pot being made. Also, they had young camels we could pet! The Guellala museum has fascinating exhibits of regional Tunisian costumes and artifacts. The walk around Hamt Souk was lovely- the least crowded medina and calmest souk we have been to. Very highly recommend this tour. What we saw made us want to schedule a whole other trip just to spend more time on Djerba!

Lovely tour to discover the island - The itinerary is a great mixture of history, art and culture. The selected spots give you a nice impression of Djerba. Also our guide Saber was really nice and helpful.

Nice walk - On Djerba there are not many activities to do. But for a week between (visiting crocodiles, shopping, quad biking, horse-drawn carriage and walks, etc.), it will be good.

Tour was great, pottery rips you off - Unfortunately, I was ripped off when buying souvenirs in the pottery. Despite the fact that I asked my guide for help with the bargaining, which unfortunately didn't come. Afterwards I realized that I would have paid only a fraction of what I had paid elsewhere for the 6 items I had bought... Unfortunately, one museum was also closed, which even the guide wasn't aware of. The tour was also bilingual and because the tourists were mostly French-speaking, I was simply ignored a few times because I didn't speak English. Other than that, I can only say good things about the tour. The museums that were open were exciting and it was very interesting to get to know other cultures. The crocodile farm was also very informative, unfortunately we didn't stay until the feeding. I would definitely recommend the tour despite my two negative reports.

Reservation error - I tried to book twice. It was available via the site, I paid and after confirmation I got a message indicating that it was not available... I just want to get a refund if the direct debit is confirmed

Country to flee - I find that this country, this island, is deteriorating from year to year. The country is becoming less beautiful and more dirty. The reception is poor, people are often aggressive scammers.

Not good - We had a day with Mohamed and unfortunately we thought he was not willing to show us and guide us what should be in each place. he was practically just a driver. We don't know Djerba Hood at all, we don't know the story. he said “I’ll meet you in 1 hour… at this cafe”. We then decided instead of doing 8 am to 6 pm just a half day tour.
