Positioning
What Rihla is, and what it is not.
Rihla is not a classic holiday camp, a tourist programme, or a summer school.
It is an immersion built with artisans and local knowledge holders so children can inhabit Tunisia for five days through rooted practices and shared rhythm.
The programme
What your child experiences.
Five days, five rooted practices. Each day is shaped with artisans, elders, and educators from the region.
Craft and sensory knowledge
Pottery, Sammar weaving, and orange blossom distillation.
Seeds, soil, and food
Farm immersion, indigenous seeds, couscous, and harissa.
Beauty and spirituality
Mosque visit, Sufi heritage, Friday traditions, and embroidery.
Sea, closure, and family
Dawn at the port, final reflections, and the family reception.
What they bring home
A personal carnet de savoirs, handmade objects, new words, and a deeper sense of belonging.
