Filming
Star Wars in Tunisia
Tunisia
in 7 days - Tour starts weekly on Saturday in Tunis
Join
us, for a six-day, five-night combination of fantasy, pleasure, and
enlightenment, in the Tunisia of Star Wars O yes, galactic traveller,
there is a land where fabled cities arise from the sand, where gnomes
have left behind their warrens of dwellings, where sleek craft hover
millimeters above the surface, free from gravitational bonds. Green
oases and palm-fringed beaches promise extraterrestial pleasures. The
land is Tunisia

Episodes
I II, and IV of Star Wars were filmed among, and inspired by, the extraordinary
landscapes, the exotic architecture, and the pervasive mystery of this
land, and we’ll explore it in the Star Wars spirit. We’ll
visit legendary Kairouan, canyons and waterfalls concealed in desert
fastnesses, and traverse great sand dunes. Our adventure will culminate
with an in-depth exploration of Oung Jemel, the real-life desert planet
of Tatooine.
