The oasis of Douz, also called the “Gate of the Desert”, the large crossing point of the Sahara, known as a typical nomadic village and famous for its high-quality dates, lies on the edge of the Erg Oriental, a sea of dunes that stretches from Algeria via Tunisia to Libya extends. In Douz we have a meal together and if you want you can buy a turban. After dinner we drive about 90 minutes directly into the desert, where the Bedouin team with the dromedaries is already waiting for us.
