According to Hamda Abdellaoui, Executive Director of DMO Djerba, "The goal is to offer a tourist experience that integrates all local products, traditional cuisine, and activities." He adds, "It is crucial that the destination is not limited to summer. Tourism must be active all year round." This perspective allows you to discover Tunisia from different angles, in all seasons, and explore the many available activities.

Complementary Tourist Information Points
In addition to this digital guide, two tourist information points have been inaugurated in Djerba. The rehabilitation of these information points, at a total cost of 190,000 dinars, is part of the "Destination South-East Tunisia" (DES-SE) project. This project is funded by the Swiss Secretariat for Economy (SECO) and implemented by the Swisscontact Foundation in partnership with the Ministry of Tourism and the Tunisian National Tourist Office.
This initiative proposes a new vision of sustainable tourism in Tunisia, going beyond the simple sun and beach, to make Tunisia a top tourist destination, hosting various events throughout the year.
