THE SPIRIT OF THE EVENT

Get ready to push your limits and live an experience that will change you forever.
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 ‘Dune Rally Tunisia’ changes its name but the well-established Adventure Riding organising team remains, with the 40-year experience of Renato Zocchi and Alessandro Botturi, a multiple African enduro and rally champion, who needs no introduction; he will still be the one to study the route and create the very detailed road book.
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-race with the use of modern and advanced navigation tools: paper or digital road book, Stella navigation tool for the competitive classes and on request for the sidebyside and Experience cars, GPS navigator for all tourist classes that can follow an expert guide on request.

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