I want to go on an excursion in Tunisia to the desert with an overnight stay. Can I find a guide on my own?
I heard about this two-day excursion, a lot and tedious shopping. I'm not going to buy anything, I'm interested in the desert. Please tell me there is another option. Maybe you can agree with some guide about another path that leads exactly the tour, and not shopping. Maybe someone knows who to contact. Thanks

We traveled on our own from Hammamet to Tunisia, Carthage and Sidi Bou Said. In this part of Tunisia with public transport everything is in order. The schedule can be found online. And the route itself is described in some detail - where to sit down, where to get off, how much it costs, where the transfer is. Minimal English should be enough. But as for the part of Tunisia where you are going, I'm not sure. At the time of our trip (3 years ago) there were few or no regular bus services. Look it up, maybe something has changed. There are good guidebooks around the country, look there.

I can support on a self-guided tour to Carthage, the blue and white old town of Sidi Bou Said which is similar to Oia in Santorini, you can independently see the Colosseum in El Jem that Ridley Scott chose for the film Gladiator and the great ancient mosque in Kairouran, go on your own to the salty scarlet pink Lake Chott el Jerid where pink flamingos live, you can go see the Medina of Sousse or Hamammet on your own, go to Cape Bon and climb to the top of the old Byzantine fortress to try to see Sicily in the distance beyond the sea, or visit one of the many nightclubs in Sousse and Hamammet where well-known DJs who are included in the top 10 according to the DJ MAG rating
On an independent excursion to the desert, if you mean Star Wars filming locations, then it is better to go to the desert with a standard excursion, the nearest place is 400 km from Sousse, where this hotel in the desert Ksar Hadada was filmed where Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace was filmed .

Another hotel in the Sidi Driss Desert in Matmata is a Berber village where Star Wars episodes A New Hope and Attack of the Clones were filmed.

Thank you all of course. But I have already been to Carthage and Sidi Bou Said, I agree it is interesting. But now I'm asking about the desert. Nevertheless, according to the answers, I conclude that I will have to take a standard excursion.
