The trip

Description

100% asphalt. It is not an extreme adventure. It is a deep trip, in the heart of the desert.

A motorcycle trip through Tunisia that you don't cross. You live. This is not just a desert tour. It's a trip that slowly enters Africa, crosses the Sahara, meets real people, and brings time back to its natural rhythm.

Motoexplora accompanies motorcyclists who do not seek the exotic postcard, but a deep experience, made of roads, silences and encounters. Days when the road meets silence, the light changes every hour and the bike becomes instrument, not protagonist.

Tunisia is not just a desert tour. It's a passageway.

The dinner in the desert is conceived and organised exclusively for Motoexplora: not a repeated event open to other travellers, but a private experience, respectful of the pace of the desert and of the people who live in it. A table in the sand, a fire warming the evening, a sky lighting up with stars.

In Tunisia, adventure is not excess, it's depth. Not everyone is looking for the same Tunisia. This is for those who really want to live it.
