Code TOE4 km from Tozeur

How to reach your hotel

Taxi

Central Tozeur is less than 10 minutes away; Nefta under half an hour.

Private transfer

Useful for going straight to a hotel in the tourist zone or to a desert camp near Douz.

Car hire

A car is almost essential in the south: the oases of Chebika and Tamerza, Chott el Djerid, Douz…

Public transport

There is no regular public transport from the airport: plan on a taxi, a transfer or a hire car.

Good to know

  • Flights are infrequent: check which days they operate before booking your nights locally.
  • For a tour of the south, fly into Tozeur and out of Djerba with a hire car in between.
  • In summer, drive early in the morning or late in the day and always carry water.
