You climb into a saddle as the island wind pushes across low dunes and the lagoon glints like a tired mirror. Hooves and padded feet set a steady rhythm on hard-packed tracks; the animals know the route and the guide reads the light, slowing for a flock of flamingos or a salt-flattened panorama.

You climb into a saddle as the island wind pushes across low dunes and the lagoon glints like a tired mirror. Hooves and padded feet set a steady rhythm on hard-packed tracks; the animals know the route and the guide reads the light, slowing for a flock of flamingos or a salt-flattened panorama.
Djerba’s coastline is shaped by wind, sea and old human hands — Phoenician traders, Berber families and Mediterranean salt workers all left marks on the land. The sand here drifts in long tongues, and limestone benches and shallow lagoons create bird-rich flats that change with the tide. Local culture is rural and practical: you'll pass small groves, olive plots and low stone pens where livestock graze.
The ride lasts about 2.5 hours, beginning at a ranch reached by short transfer from Houmt Souk. Riders can choose between horse, camel or a horse-drawn carriage; guides supervise every caravan and safety gear is provided. Stops are built into the route, including a photo break at the lagoon’s edge and a sunset option for later departures.
Practical notes: wear closed-toe shoes, sun protection and bring a small daypack with water (bottled water is included). The activity is advertised as accessible to most ages and to people with reduced mobility, though it’s not recommended for pregnant guests or those with serious back or heart conditions. Respect the animals and follow the guide’s instructions — they keep the route sustainable and the mounts well cared for. This is a low-impact way to see Djerba’s quieter landscapes while feeling the island’s slow, steady pace under you.
