Private Tour
Tozeur: Tamerza, Chebika, Mides and Star Wars locations Day Tour
Overview
8 hours
Mobile ticket
A few dozen kilometers from Tozeur and Nefta are Chebika, Tamerza, and Midès, oases in a landscape of mountains that is one of the most moving sites in southern Tunisia. In this breathtakingly beautiful landscape, every oasis is different. In Chebika, a wadi runs down the side of a steep mountain, forming waterfalls and rivulets where frogs have made their home. The old village of Tamerza abandoned like a ghost village, looks out at a spectacular mountainous landscape; its lush oasis is fed by a towering waterfall. Last but not least, Midès, tucked away into a dizzyingly high canyon, boasts spectacular views.
you’ll get to explore the real-life filming locations of your favorite intergalactic epic. Travel between sights in a private, air-conditioned 4WD vehicle, getting a close-up to peek at Luke Skywalker’s house, the streets of Mos Espa, and the Yardangs, plus many more.

4.00My driver was punctual, very nice, and very talkative. Luckily, the day was sunny, allowing me to enjoy all the beautiful scenery, and the Star Wars filming locations felt like I was on Tatooine. It felt amazing! Another item completed on my bucket list!
Excellent and highly recommend for Star Wars and non-Star Wars fans

5.00My tour guide Mustapha Naji (Saharan Sky) was excellent and I couldn't recommend him and the tour more. Mustapha spoke great English and brought so much fun to the experience + some extras which I won't spoil!! He went above and beyond to make the experience great, and was always willing to take photos, share information and joke. He also helped me with getting around Tozeur and made my stay in Tozeur a lot easier and enjoyable. As a Star Wars fan it was great, and even if you're not, this is definitely worthwhile!!
A wonderful holiday

5.00I booked a tour to Tamerza, Chebika, Mides and Star Wars locations without a guide. Mr. Muatafa was the driver but had full knowledge of the sightseeing places. He could speak many languages as well. I highly recommend him.
Excellent one day tour of Tozeur plus Star Wars spots

5.00I went solo for this one day trip. The tour was action packed and hit the main locations per the itinerary. I loved Mides (so close to the canyon), Mos Espos (go now before the weather and Mother Nature reclaims the movie set), the Camel Neck, and the Lars Homestead (rebuilt in 2011). The ride was very comfortable and Saad was a good driver, wanting to please making sure you had enough time in the different places. Note that Saad doesn’t speak English, but we made the best of the trip by using Google translate. As mentioned he was very attentive and friendly.

5.00Punctuality + Professional. And not asking for the tips. We are tourists if we think the service is good then we can provide the tips.
Great Tour

5.00Well organised, went to all the expected sites including some cool off-roading in the 4x4. Mos Espa was in better condition than I expected based on other research I had done. Luke's igloo was surprisingly underwater but our driver was very patient in letting us walk out to it across the shallow lake that had been formed. Oases were beautiful.
Perfect from start to finish!

5.00Our driver Ahmed was great from start to finish, he explains a lot about his country. He is very friendly and he made us spend a beautiful day between the salt lake and the Star Wars movie sets through mountain oases. It does not push to spend and drove us to small corners where we could have lunch for cheap, taste palm juice. The desert race will be a great memory. A very nice day with a great driver! We recommend x10,000 this tour with Saharansky.
Driver did not hurry

1.000 communication, contact number unreachable, we had an appointment at 8am, waited until 9am trying to reach the tour organization several times, the driver did not show up. He called us at 12:00 to tell us that he was in front of where we were staying. Very disappointed because we had made the trip especially for these visits, impossible for us to postpone to another day.
