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
Delivery happens in the village, outside your accommodation. It is the only practical option here: Hazoua has no rental desk and no business of that kind.
Collect at the agency
Collecting at an agency means Tozeur, an hour east, or 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
- 57km
- Drive time
- 55min
- An hour by way of Nefta, paved and straight the whole way across the plain.
- Hazoua is a waypoint, rarely a destination: most travellers pass through heading for the border post or coming back from Ong Jmel.
Taking the road
- The road effectively ends at the border post: taking the car out of Tunisia is forbidden by every rental contract, without exception.
- No services between Nefta and Hazoua: no filling station, no garage, no recovery for thirty-five kilometres.
- Sand wind cuts visibility on this stretch in spring; slow down and put your lights on rather than stopping on the carriageway.
- Always fill up in Nefta, in both directions: it is the last station in the western Jerid.

Exploring Hazoua
Hazoua is the last Tunisian settlement on the western road: a small border oasis at the end of the plain beyond Nefta, where the road runs on towards the Algerian frontier post.
A stretch of road, not a destination
Let us be straightforward: you do not come to Hazoua to sightsee, but because you are passing through. The drive itself is the point — the run from Nefta, about forty minutes, crosses the barest landscapes in the Jerid, between salt flat and sand, with very little traffic.
Practicalities
This is an area where self-sufficiency matters: fill up in Nefta or Tozeur before taking this road, as services beyond are very limited. Stay on tarmac at all times — the verges are sandy and off-road driving is excluded by the agencies. Finally, if your plan involves crossing the border, you must check the agency's conditions on the listing: taking the vehicle out of the country is not permitted by default.
Returning the car
Fuel and toll prices in Tunisia- Allow fifty-five minutes to the airport, via Nefta: it is the only route.
- Fill up in Nefta on the way back; do not count on finding fuel further west.
Good to know
Frequently asked questions
What is there to do in Hazoua?
It is a small border oasis, a waypoint rather than a tourist destination. The interest lies mainly in the drive from Nefta, about forty minutes, across the barest landscapes in the Jerid.
Can I cross the border in a rental car?
Not by default: taking the vehicle out of the country is not permitted without agreement. You must check the agency's conditions on the listing before planning such a trip.
Are there special precautions on this road?
Yes: fill up in Nefta or Tozeur before setting off, as services beyond are very limited, and stay on tarmac. The verges are sandy and driving off paved roads is excluded by the agencies.
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.
