I was doing some research for a trip to Tunis this summer and came across this interesting gem about the filming of Star Wars in the Tunisian desert. It is apparently a popular tourist destination for Star Wars fans, so much so that Tunisia.com loudly proclaims it!
“When I was searching in 1977 for a place to make the first Star Wars movie I found Tunisia the ideal country for filming: beautiful countryside, unique architecture and a very high level of technical sophistication.” – George Lucas
