This half-day tour shines the spotlight on Djerba Explore Park. A replica desert village, it's packed with attractions, shops and show-pieces, including a museum on local history, a traditional ‘menzel' and lagoons filled with hungry crocodiles. You'll spend the afternoon checking it all out while learning more about Tunisian culture and heritage.
Kick off in the museum with a poke around its collections of Islamic art, including glittering Berber robes and scraps of ancient calligraphy. Then tour the ‘menzel', a Djerban farm, replete with whitewashed ‘houch' houses, pottery workshops and an olive oil mill.
The highlight, though, is the crocodile farm. This cluster of palm-fringed lagoons is home to 400 crocodiles, some of which are up to 3 metres long. Watch them dozing on the banks and peering from the water, and coo over the beady-eyed baby crocs in the nursery.
