Tozeur calèche ride & date picking

Still in Tozeur we took a tour of the town and oasis in a calèche, or horse drawn carriage. Most of the photos were somewhat blurry but here are a few to share with you!





Into the oasis itself where the land is 'farmed' by numerous families, particularly the local delicacy: dates!


How do you fancy this job, many times a day at harvest time?

The pollination is all done by hand. Here you see the male & female flowers.
