At the gates of the desert, southern Tunisia is enveloped in ochre lands and golden sands from which emerge small villages. Ancestral cultures, nomadic desert experts and adventurous tourists roam the desert.

An unparalleled setting that didn't overlook film director George Lucas. The Tunisian desert was the best setting for the planet Tatooine, whose name comes from the Tunisian city of Tataouine which Barber houses were once the home of the Jedi Luke Skywalker.
