Arrival and handover
You choose when you book: we bring the car to where you are, or you collect it from the partner agency. Both options are already included in the price shown.
Delivered to your address
This is the usual case in Midoun: the car is delivered to the hotel, in the resort area or in town. The front desk serves as the meeting point.
Collect at the agency
You can also collect the car from the area's agency if you would rather set off as soon as you reach town.
Bring to the handover: a valid driving licence and an ID document. Payment is made on the spot.
- From Djerba-Zarzis Airport
- 35km
- Drive time
- 40min
- Crossing the island west to east goes through Houmt Souk: the road is straight and well surfaced, with no difficulty after dark.
- For a stay entirely in the resort area, two or three days of rental is often enough to see the whole island.
Taking the road
- On Friday, market day, central Midoun clogs up through the morning and parking has to be hunted for: leave early, or park on the edge and finish on foot.
- The resort road follows the coast for some fifteen kilometres, with speed bumps outside the hotels.
- The tracks cutting inland from the coast road are sandy in places: stay on tarmac in a city car.
- The nearest filling stations are on the Houmt Souk road, at the western edge of the village.

Exploring Midoun
Midoun is Djerba's second town and the anchor of the north-eastern resort area: much of the island's hotel capacity is concentrated here, minutes from the Sidi Mahrez beaches, the longest on Djerba.
Renting from your hotel
This is the island's most common pattern: you stay in the hotel zone and take a car for a few days to get beyond the beach perimeter. Within thirty minutes you reach Houmt Souk and its souks, the Ghriba at Erriadh, or the south-eastern tip towards Aghir and the Ras Taguermess lighthouse.
Practicalities
Midoun's market, especially on Friday, brings the whole centre to life — traffic thickens and parking has to be hunted for. Outside that window the island drives very easily: flat roads, short distances, moderate traffic. In summer, expect crowds near the beaches in the late afternoon.
Returning the car
Fuel and toll prices in Tunisia- Many travellers leaving from the resort area hand the car back at the airport directly: say so when booking, there is no surcharge.
- Allow forty minutes from Midoun to the airport, an hour if you cross Houmt Souk on a market day.
- Fill up at the western edge of the village: there is no station between the resort area and Houmt Souk.
Good to know

Is Midoun convenient for a hotel stay?
It is the most common use case: the north-eastern hotel zone is here, minutes from the Sidi Mahrez beaches. A few days' rental is enough to see the whole island.
What can I reach from Midoun?
Houmt Souk and its souks, the Ghriba synagogue at Erriadh, and the south-eastern tip towards Aghir and the Ras Taguermess lighthouse — all within about thirty minutes.
When is traffic difficult?
On market days, especially Friday, when the centre gets busy and parking has to be hunted for. In summer, also expect crowds near the beaches in the late afternoon.
What is the minimum rental duration?
3 days, as everywhere on Allo-Auto. Licence and ID are uploaded at online checkout, and payment is settled at the agency at pick-up.
