Can we drive the most difficult Sahara route in Tunisia?

This was one big adventure 🐪🏜️
We had this crazy idea to drive to the Sahara desert, in the middle of winter, to drive Tunisia's most difficult Sahara route and celebrate New Year's.
We would love to thank ‪@bfgoodrichtires‬ for the support of this trip 😍.
And ‪@cortazu‬ for their awesome gear that was quite usefull on cold desert nights 🫶. We are excited to let you know you can get a 15% discount with our code:

Also big shoutout to www.elektrische-lier.nl for supplying us with the newest and best winch 😍.
Thanks for watching everyone!

    Another excellent overlanding video in a very interesting part of the world. Great cinematography, very nice drone shots, interesting characters (your guide and the Italian overlander), good storytelling! Very few overlanding videos are at this level, and I've seen most of them. Congratulations on another great video!
