This unique 11-day holiday provides the rare chance to search for the orchids, butterflies and dragonflies of Tunisia and can be enjoyed back-to-back with our general natural history 'Tunisia' tour for a comprehensive study of this fascinating country's flora & fauna!

Our holiday begins with a 2-night stay in the coastal city of Hammamet, known for its sandy beaches and charming medina. Our excursions from here will target the Cap Bon Peninsula, including Korbus and El Haouaria, to search for such striking orchids as Pink Butterfly Orchid Anacamptis papilionacea subsp. grandiflora and Woodcock Orchid Ophrys scolopax subsp. scolopax plus butterflies including Austaut’s Grayling. The day concludes with local cuisine and hospitality at Hammamet.

Continuing north, we move into the Mogods Mountains, for excursions including Sejnane and Nefza. These areas host the aromatic Bug Orchid Anacamptis coriophora and such dragonflies as Algerian Clubtail. The lush, hilly landscapes of the Khroufa Natural Reserve and the Kroumirie mountains offer a perfect backdrop to discover orchids like Violet Limodore while enjoying the tranquil countryside near Bou Salem.

Heading south, using a flight from Tunis to the island of Djerba, our itinerary transitions to the arid yet striking landscapes of Douz, the ‘Gateway to the Sahara’. Visits to desert pools highlight specialised species such as Desert Bluetail and Desert Darter. A stop at Bouhedma National Park will further our semi-arid species and Tunisia’s ecological range. The cultural richness of Kairouan and El Jem, with its iconic Roman amphitheatre, adds a historical dimension to the itinerary before a final stop at Metbassta Wetlands.

  • An exciting range of habitats covered across Tunisia, from the mountains in the north to the deserts in the south
  • Scarce butterflies such as Moroccan Orange-tip, Plain Tiger & Double-tailed Pasha
  • 36 species of Orchid are found in Tunisia and our itinerary has been crafted together with in-country experts to search for a fine selection of these
  • Led by an expert local naturalist alongside a Naturetrek tour leader

Tell me about Tunisia …

Tunisia is close to Europe both geographically and culturally, and offers a stability that has not always been assured by its neighbours. It offers a microcosm of all things North African yet, in the north, the rugged green hills and valleys clothed in vineyards, oak woodlands, and tidy towns and villages have a European style and a landscape similar to that of neighbouring southern Italy, Sardinia and Corsica.


It boasts some spectacular scenery, from the great sand dunes of the Sahara, to wetlands, woodlands and savannah areas, and these diverse habitats are carefully protected by a well managed system of national parks.

Think of Africa, and it is likely that great, grassy plains and thundering herds of antelope come to mind. However, this vast landmass has so much more to offer than sub-Saharan savannahs, with the north of the continent showcasing a variety of landscapes, fascinating species and classical history that is unmatched anywhere else on Earth. From sun-kissed Mediterranean shores and rolling dune deserts to the world-bearing peaks of the Atlas Mountains, the beauty of the region is matched only by the rich diversity of its wildlife and past; nowhere else can a visitor experience nature amidst the remnants of Rome, Carthage and Ancient Egypt. What’s more, all this can be found just a short hop from southern Europe, making North Africa an irresistibly accessible destination.

Summary

This unique 11-day holiday provides the rare chance to search for the orchids, butterflies and dragonflies of Tunisia and can be enjoyed back-to-back with our general natural history 'Tunisia' tour for a comprehensive study of this fascinating country's flora & fauna!

Our holiday begins with a 2-night stay in the coastal city of Hammamet, known for its sandy beaches and charming medina. Our excursions from here will target the Cap Bon Peninsula, including Korbus and El Haouaria, to search for such striking orchids as Pink Butterfly Orchid Anacamptis papilionacea subsp. grandiflora and Woodcock Orchid Ophrys scolopax subsp. scolopax plus butterflies including Austaut’s Grayling. The day concludes with local cuisine and hospitality at Hammamet.

Continuing north, we move into the Mogods Mountains, for excursions including Sejnane and Nefza. These areas host the aromatic Bug Orchid Anacamptis coriophora and such dragonflies as Algerian Clubtail. The lush, hilly landscapes of the Khroufa Natural Reserve and the Kroumirie mountains offer a perfect backdrop to discover orchids like Violet Limodore while enjoying the tranquil countryside near Bou Salem.

Heading south, using a flight from Tunis to the island of Djerba, our itinerary transitions to the arid yet striking landscapes of Douz, the ‘Gateway to the Sahara’. Visits to desert pools highlight specialised species such as Desert Bluetail and Desert Darter. A stop at Bouhedma National Park will further our semi-arid species and Tunisia’s ecological range. The cultural richness of Kairouan and El Jem, with its iconic Roman amphitheatre, adds a historical dimension to the itinerary before a final stop at Metbassta Wetlands.
