Djerba Open 3rd Edition

Beautiful place with great people, food and scenery. Went for a short break and had a great time. A lot of things to see and do, from historical buildings like the fort to graffiti art in djerbahood. People were fantastic, weather was perfect, and the cost was also very low. Definitely go check it out!

Very good holidays' destination with friendly people. A bit overpriced in some cases. A bit rubbish in some places. Sand everywhere with very warm water. Nice wide beaches with many camels and horses and beach sellers. Very nice attractions and trips possible to buy. Cheap cigarettes, but banned cannabis. Alcohol is possible to get everywhere. Food simple and not much tasty. Many nice and sweet fruits and fruit juices and cocktails.

As others mentioned there is a lot of trash strewn about the sides of roads in Djerba and in fact in much of Tunisia. We still enjoyed our visit to the island, here are some snapshots taken from our tour bus. The sites we stopped at are in separate reviews. Hopefully, as more tour groups come to Tunisia, they will be motivated to clean up the trash on the sides of the roads.

The reason I am giving Djerba a 3-star is for many reasons. First main reason is that the island itself is not what it seems on pictures. The streets are filled with trash and homeless animals and many other things. Second, the resort we stayed at and many others around are beautiful on the outside but not at all new or at least remodeled on the inside. The third and final reason is the beaches/environment all around. Not at all organized, trash everywhere, and the people trying to sell tours are annoying. I understand they are making a living but it gets annoying when your trying to relax. Djerba all around is a beautiful place to visit if you looking for cultural experiences and a different way of life. The resort we stayed was 2 star for sure. Food not so good, staff did not speak English, the beach was terrible, and the resort was old. If your a person that wants to bring your family or other half, I do not recommend Djerba.

The beauty of this island is infinite. It is quite, beautiful, rich of culture and handcraft. The sea is clear like crystal water.
