ABDERRAHIM ben ABDELMALEK

Abderrahim ben AbdelmalekAbderrahim ben Abdelmalek organizes an adventurous, unique authentic trekking and meharee through the Tunisian Sahara with  barb horses and packed dromedaries, guided by experienced Bedouins, to bring back the old days -  when Bedouin cavaliers protected their meharee with their fast horses through the desert.
The departure into the desert is from the characteristic village Douz, the gateway to the Sahara.
All the supplies, luggage, grain and hay for the horses are carried by dromedaries. Nights are spent under Bedouin tents woven of goat hair.


TREKKING THROUGH THE TUNISIAN SAHARA


Trekking through the desert inspires on many levels.
The view over the desert is spectacular as well as the experience riding the Barb & Arab Barb horses who enjoy going up the dunes as the meditative rhythm of the dromedary. Beautiful highlights will be visited like abandoned villages, a place where sand roses can be found, holy marabouts, water sources and the marvelous ever continuing sand dunes.
En Route at the BirThe Trekking Program is unique. Experience the true meditative part of Bedouin life and how the desert still influences Tunisian culture. During the trekking you travel with Bedouins, together with horse riders, with friends and family and children who can travel together with the dromedaries.

A guaranteed departure from 4 persons, we have sufficient supplies for groups up to 10. Horse riding 750 euro pp., traveling with the meharee 550 euro pp.
