My partner and I had a wonderful stay at this bed and breakfast. The hosts are a really lovely couple who take very well care of their guests and are very helpful in organising trips. I can highly recommend staying here when you’re traveling to Tozeur.

Wonderful stay with lovely hosts

Nice room with big comfortable bed and very nice breakfast in a beautiful villa very close to the oasis, in the heart of the touristic area! The owner is very discreet but at the same time extremely helpful host who will make you'll see the best of the area ant the Sahara. Value for Money.

Taieb is the host you want when you travel!

What was not so nice is that we had to wait for over an hour when we arrived. The owner had asked us at what time we thought we would arrive and I said probably around six. he didn’t specify that we have to be there exactly at that time. But I did inform him at 4:15 that we would probably arrive around five. Normally he is quite quick with replying on WhatsApp but now he only replied at six. This can happen, but I think it will be good for people who are unaware about this , to know this in advance.

We had contacted the owner with a question if he knew a place where we could book a trip to the desert. He replied that he knew the best guy for it. he got back to us and said that this Mr. Mohammed was only available at certain dates so if we could change our itinerary and come one day earlier, that would be great. I asked if there would be sleeping bags because from previous experiences, I know in Egypt and morocco and Mali and China and India and Mongolia, that sleeping in the desert can be quite cold. He replied that yes, they would be sleeping bags.  

We found Mrs Fatima quite sweet, but Mr Taieb somewhat commercially imposing, trying to sell us 4wd tour during the time we were having dinner. 

However, the real reason why we are giving a one star review is that when we arrived at zaafrane It turned out that the Mr. Mohammed, for whom we had changed our itineraries so we could go with him through the desert, him being the expert etc. was not going to take us into the desert but instead we were going with another guide, who spoke literally only two words of French.

And when it was time for bed, it turned out there were no sleeping bags. So we hardly slept at night because it was way too cold for us. The reason why I took the effort to ride, told us, because I really dislike complaining, is that I wouldn’t want anyone else to go through the same thing.  
So if you’re interested in doing a desert tour, why don’t you contact Mr. Mohamed directly?  This is his website: désert-Tunesie.com.

Or alternatively, if you want to go with the guide, Mr Mabrouk, that was with us, (but didn’t speak any French unfortunately) you can contact his son Marzoug on this number, +216 24 025 392 (his son does speak French)

My advice is that definitely bring your own sleeping bags, as did our guide he had his sleeping bag, we had each three thin blankets, and we were cold with all our clothes and jackets on in a tent. They do not have sleeping bags.  

I would not advise to organize anything through Mr.  Taieb. He is what they call in Brazil a 171.  He promises a lot, takes a hefty commission and lies.
