Tunisia Nov 2019
Just back from our Nov 2019 Tunisia expedition. We took four Land Rovers down to the Grand Erg Orientale doing a search for lost LRDG/PPA vehicles abandoned after being strafed by the Luftwaffe. I am putting together a post trip report but highlights:
-Tunisia is a very safe and easily accessible destination.
-Port arrival customs/immigration at Tunis was smooth, quick and much faster that Morocco
-Surprised by number of people who speak English...easy to manage.
-The Grand Erg sand sea is daunting and challenging. As Tomek has mentioned in a previous post-trip report, the close packed dunes make it a real challenge for long wheelbase vehicles.
-Worked with Ilyes from SaharanSky in Tunisia who provided support and advice. Would highly recommend his service for any new Tunisian explorers.
-For anyone looking for the next level of challenge after Morocco, I would highly recommend Tunisia.
Cheers,
James
