My partner and I had a incredible experience at a desert camp recently. We were contacted prior to our trip to ensure smooth transport from the city. Our driver made the desert journey enjoyable with stops for breathtaking photos. Upon arrival, the friendly staff made us feel right at home. We were treated to a candlelit dinner and were even offered freshly baked bread made in the sand! The food throughout our stay was absolutely delicious. The camp itself was stunning, and the cozy tents provided a comfortable night's sleep. We loved being immersed in the tranquility of the desert. I highly recommend this unique and memorable desert camp experience.

The location of the camp was absolutely stunning, deep in the desert where you couldn't see any other lights or hear any noise. The tents were beautifully appointed with cozy beds, and having a private bathroom in the tent was a definite advantage. The dinner was a highlight, with delicious three-course meals and even a bread making demonstration. The camp offered a unique experience to connect with the local culture, with opportunities to interact with the hosts and drivers.
One negative aspect was the lack of activities, especially during the off-season.

Our stay at Camp Mars was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning beauty of the desert and the warm hospitality of the staff. The 4x4 trip to reach the camp added to the sense of adventure and excitement. The tents were beautifully decorated and provided a comfortable and cozy space to relax. The highlight of our stay was the delicious three-course dinner, which exceeded our expectations. Despite a few minor drawbacks, such as the lack of activities and the misleading "free parking" advertisement, the overall experience was exceptional. We highly recommend Camp Mars for anyone seeking a unique and memorable Sahara desert experience.

The food was absolutely amazing, especially the soup and the freshly baked bread. The owner was very friendly and provided us with interesting insights about Tunisia. The journey to the camp through the sand dunes was an epic adventure, and the location was perfect for stargazing. The spacious tent and the hand-made toilet added to the unique experience. The communication and organization from the staff were superb, and the camp's proximity to the Tembaine mountain and sand dunes made it even more special. I highly recommend staying at this hotel.
