At a Glance
In Matmata, Berber families have lived for centuries in cave houses: large round courtyards dug into the earth, with rooms opening around them. One of them, the Hotel Sidi Driss, became Luke Skywalker's home in Star Wars.
The road goes through Tamezret, a hilltop village of stone houses, then reaches Gabès, one of the few oases by the sea.
Highlights
- A cave house that is still lived in
- The Hotel Sidi Driss, a Star Wars set
- The hilltop village of Tamezret
- The seaside oasis of Gabès
