✈️ Getting there

DJEDjerba–Zarzis International Airport
📍 9 km⏱ 15 min🚕 Taxi🚌 Car rental

A metered taxi from the terminal to Houmt Souk takes around 15 minutes and costs approximately €3–5 — agree on the fare before you set off, as drivers often quote higher prices to new arrivals.

Tunisia's second-largest airport, compact and straightforward, served primarily by Tunisair, Nouvelair, Ryanair, and Transavia with direct seasonal and year-round routes from across Europe.

Don't Miss

Hidden gems and local experiences in Djerba — beyond the tourist trail.

🕍El Ghriba Synagogue in Hara Sghira — arrive before 10 a.m. on a weekday to avoid pilgrimage crowds. Cover shoulders and knees, remove shoes at the door, and linger in the blue-tiled inner chamber, which locals claim dates back over 2,500 years. Closed Friday evening to Saturday.
🎨Walk the Djerbahood murals in Erriadh village — go mid-morning before tour buses arrive. Pick up a free map from the village entrance and duck into residential alleys where some of the best pieces by ROA and other international artists are hidden on courtyard walls.
🏺Guellala pottery village on the south coast — visit a working family workshop (not just the museum gift shop) where you can watch potters at wheel-thrown traditional amphorae using techniques unchanged for centuries. Pieces are cheap and lighter than they look for packing.
🦩Take a morning boat to Ras R'mel (Flamingo Island) — a sandbar 30 minutes from the port at Ajim where wild flamingos feed at low tide. Go before 9 a.m. and bring binoculars; the birds vanish once day-trippers arrive. Local fishermen in Ajim will take you for around 15–20 TND.
🍽️Eat at Essofra restaurant in Houmt Souk — a family-run place where the cooking is done by the owner's wife using traditional Djerban recipes including stuffed intestines, octopus stew, and the island's distinctive thick-syrup makroudh. No menu in English, no tourist theatre — point at what neighbours are having.
