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
Degache is a small town: delivery happens outside your guest house or on the central square, a step from the chott road.
Collect at the agency
No desk here: collect in Tozeur, fifteen minutes away, or at the airport on arrival.
Bring to the handover: a valid driving licence and an ID document. Payment is made on the spot.
- From Tozeur-Nefta Airport
- 16km
- Drive time
- 20min
- The road from the airport skirts Tozeur to the north, so you miss the town centre and its slow stretches.
- Degache is mostly a stop on the oasis road: most travellers spend a night here, not a week.
Taking the road
- The crossing of Chott el-Jerid begins some twenty kilometres past Degache: paved, dead straight, with no station and no shade for eighty kilometres.
- The palm-grove tracks are narrow and walled; they serve the growers and are taken at walking pace.
- The farm market clogs the centre in the morning, especially during the date harvest from October to December.
- Nearest filling station: in Tozeur, or on the Kebili road beyond the causeway.

Exploring Degache
Degache is an agricultural oasis north-east of Tozeur, on the road running along the Chott el-Jerid: a dense palm grove known for its deglet nour dates, and a pace of life that remains that of a working town rather than a tourist one.
A stop on the oasis road
Its position makes it a natural waypoint: Tozeur is a quarter of an hour away, Nefta about thirty minutes, and the road north-west leads to the mountain oases of Chebika, Tamerza and Mides. Eastwards, you follow the Chott towards Kebili and Douz. It is a good pick-up point if you want range without basing yourself in a tourist town.
Practicalities
Traffic is calm and parking is free. As everywhere in the Jerid, fill up before setting out to explore: filling stations cluster in the towns and thin out as soon as you leave them. The region's roads are paved and in good condition; it is the desert tracks, excluded by the agencies, that must be avoided.
Returning the car
Fuel and toll prices in Tunisia- Twenty minutes to the airport by the northern road: the usual drop-off from Degache.
- Take fuel in Tozeur before heading for the chott or the border: there is nothing beyond.
Good to know
Frequently asked questions
Where is Degache?
North-east of Tozeur, on the road along the Chott el-Jerid: a quarter of an hour from Tozeur, about thirty minutes from Nefta. It is an agricultural oasis known for its deglet nour dates.
What can I visit from Degache?
The north-western mountain oases — Chebika, Tamerza, Mides — and, eastwards, the Chott road towards Kebili and Douz. All on paved roads, fine for a regular car.
Should I plan fuel in advance?
Yes: filling stations cluster in the towns and thin out sharply once you leave them. Fill up before every excursion — that is the rule across the Jerid.
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.
