Tamerza

Tamerza is a mountain oasis village in south west Tunisia, paired on our programmes with Chebika, with waterfalls and palm groves among barren hills. The eight, ten and eleven day journeys visit both in one outing from Tozeur, after the Star Wars set at Mos Espa.

Visiting Tamerza

Tamerza and Chebika are named together on the sheets as the mountain oasis villages of the south west, the place where barren hills meet waterfalls and palm groves. On the eight, ten and eleven day journeys the visit closes the day, and you return to Tozeur at the time of your choosing to explore the oases and the old town. The Students Fun Tour travels there by Jeep.
