Whether you are an experienced driver or a motoring enthusiast, ‘Dune Rally Tunisia’ offers you the opportunity to connect with people who share your passion for extreme adventure. Exchange stories, cultivate new friendships and create lasting memories together with a unique and vibrant community.

The rally is organized by the top team at Adventure Riding, backed by the 40 years of experience of Renato Zocchi and Alessandro Botturi, a multiple champion in enduro and African rallies who needs no introduction. Once again, he will be responsible for designing the route and producing the highly detailed roadbook.

The mission of the ‘Dune Rally Tunisia’ is to allow enthusiasts to face the desert in complete safety by experiencing a unique and often inaccessible experience for those who do not want to measure themselves against a stopwatch and therefore in a race.

The approach is that of a Gentleman’s race, using modern and advanced navigation system with a paper or digital road book with the TerraPirata app and the navigation system for Rally classes.

For the Experience class, with a choice of a printed or digital roadbook with the “TerraPirata” app, or a GPX track, with the option of taking an easier route or being accompanied by an expert guide.

The organisation has the proven medical service and recovery vehicles for drivers and vehicles.
