ZAAFRANE:
Practicalities
HOTELS AND ALTERNATIVES
While there is only one hotel in town, this is of good value and quite a bit of charm. It is important to know that there is heating in winter and air conditioning in summer. They also allow camping in the grounds.

RESTAURANTS AND ALTERNATIVES
Eat in the hotel, also of good value.

NIGHTLIFE
Nothing. Even if the hotel is licensed.

CHANGE MONEY
Nothing. Do this in nearby Douz.

TRANSPORT
The most common form of transport out here, is with pickup trucks. These run frequently and are rather cheap.
Zaafrane is an excellent place for going on desert excursions on camel back. You can choose between in-crowd trips for a few hours, or even for one week trips to Ksar Ghilane (at about 300 dinars per person.
