Tunisia , lookin' for a guide
Next October ,I have 10 days to spend in Tunisia desert .
But we are with only with one vehicle and to be secure ( off tracks ) I'm lookin' for a guide who knows very well the route beetween Bordj el Khadra an El Borma ( across dunes , along Algerian border ) and also the route to Lake Er-Reched ( south of Tembain ) .
Does anybody knows where I can find this guide ( in Tataouine or Douz ) ?
I've faxed my request to "syndicat d'initiative" in these cities but , before , I prefer have some advice from somebody who has already take a guide in this region .
Thanks a lot for your replies .

Salut -
When I was in Tunisia I met a few people in Douz, including a couple of "guides". Some are not to be trusted, others became like old friends. I will remind myself of their names and contact details tonight, but I will definitely be able to help you. The places you want to go to are beautiful.
Plus tard...
PS > Your email has an unrouteaable address...
