Tozeur Accommodation

In the South West of the stunning country of Tunisia lies the oasis town of Tozeur. A wonderfully charming place with rich cultural heritage and famous for its yellowish brick architecture, Tozeur is a city of many interesting contrasts and promises travellers an amazing excursion during their stay. Tozeur has always been an important city from a commercial standpoint – firstly, because it was a good trade route from the Sahara desert to other prominent North African coastal cities, and today because of its farming of dates and palms.

The city is also very tourist friendly with a number of recreational facilities for guests to enjoy as well as incredibly warm Tunisian hospitality. Tozeur’s appeal stretches further into the realm of movies where it has been the setting for heavyweight films such as the Star Wars saga, the Indiana Jones movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, and the English Patient which scooped many Academy Awards. There are a plethora of enthralling sights around Tozeur which attracts scores of travellers to the oasis each year; these include the old world Medina, a scintillating botanical gardens, and Belvedere Park, which boasts panoramic views of over 200 000 palm groves that are watered by a number of natural springs.

The Medina is quite popular amongst guests who are eager to soak up the rich cultural legacy of old Tunisia; guests can explore a beautiful museum that has many interesting artifacts. The museum has been built in the style of a Tunisian palace and is home to jewellery, ornaments, wax figures, and ceramics. The newly developed theme park Arabian Nights has firmly cemented Tozeur’s reputation as a tourist location and promises hours of fun for the whole family.
