Star Wars Fan's Dream: Djerba Day Trip To Luke's Tosche Station & Obi-wan's House
About this tour
Discover Djerba as you have never seen it – in the footsteps of George Lucas and the legendary Star Wars saga. This exclusive full-day tour takes you across the island to explore Tosche Station in Ajim (the site of the famous deleted scenes with Luke Skywalker), Ben Kenobi's house near Sidi Jmour mosque (where Obi-Wan met young Luke), and the iconic streets of Mos Eisley at Amghar mosque. You will also visit Boumesswer mosque, a site scouted by the film crew but ultimately not used, and discover the mysterious underground mosque of Loutàa, whose troglodyte architecture directly recalls the desert dwellings of Tatooine. Between cinema, culture, and local history, this immersion will transport you to a galaxy far, far away.
