PRIVATE STAR WARS DAY TOUR SUMMARY

At Ksar Médenine, imagine standing alongside young Anakin Skywalker and his mother Shmi in the bustling streets of Mos Espa’s slave quarters, just as seen in Episode I: The Phantom Menace.

Ksar Hadada was also used as a filming location for these same scenes, offering an authentic glimpse into daily life on Tatooine.

 

In Matmata, the iconic Sidi Idriss Hotel opens the doors to the Lars Homestead, Luke Skywalker’s childhood home.

This is where key moments from Episode IV: A New Hope were filmed, allowing you to walk in the footsteps of the young hero as he dreams of distant adventures under Tatooine’s twin suns.

 

Chenini, with its spectacular desert landscapes, has served as a backdrop multiple times throughout the saga.

While not tied to a specific scene, its unique atmosphere greatly contributed to the arid, isolated aesthetic of Tatooine as depicted across various episodes.

 

Finally, the majestic Ksar Ouled Soltane, with its remarkably preserved ghorfas, was also used for the slave quarters scenes of Mos Espa in Episode I.
 

Admire the unique architecture that inspired Lucasfilm’s designers in crafting the visual universe of this legendary planet.
 

Relive the iconic dialogues and moments that defined one of the most beloved sagas of all time as you visit these locations rich with cinematic history.

While this one-day tour immerses you in the heart of the Tataouine and Matmata filming locations, Tunisia is home to many other exceptional Star Wars filming sites, especially around Tozeur.
 

These places, such as Mos Espa or Luke Skywalker’s home, Lars homestead on the salt lake of Chott el Jerid, offer an even deeper immersion into the world of Tatooine.
 

Although the tour presented here focuses on the Tataouine region, we also offer longer tours, lasting 3 or 4 days, including the iconic sites of Tozeur.
 

These tours are designed for enthusiasts who wish to explore every corner of the desert planet and experience a complete Star Wars adventure, from the Lars Homestead to the city of Mos Espa.
 

Discover all the places that inspired George Lucas and walk in the footsteps of your favorite characters.
