Jaw-Dropping Desert Villages in TUNISIA (TATAOUINE & CHENINI) ????????تطاوين‎

Berber village of Chenini, Spa&Thalassotherapy in Djerba True Tunisia...season 2 (day 11/12)

In this episode: climb to the ancient troglodyte berber village of Chenini (11th century), a fortified ksar (granary) near Tataouine (in Star Wars, many scenes were filmed in the area and one of the moons of Tatooine is named Chenini).

Then discover Masjid of the Seven Sleepers: according to legend, they did not stop growing during their 308-years sleep and became giants; their graves measure 5 meters long.

In Djerba, it's now time to relax! Since 2004, Tunisia is the second destination in the world for spa and thalassotherapy, with high professional skills.

At Houmt El Souk, main town of the island of Djerba, YouTubers are shopping at local fish market to have a delicious meal by the sea.

It's now time for them to share their best memories and say goodbye in front of the Mediterranean sea.

Hotel Dakyanus - quick tour of Tataouine hotel in southern Tunisia (Bradt Travel Guides)

Today we take a short tour of the Hotel Dakyanus, a large property just outside the town of Tataouine in southern Tunisia. The grounds are beautiful, full of birds, and I imagine the pool would be great in summer! The rooms are also traditionally built which keeps them cool during the hot summer months. A great option for exploring this amazing governorate, which is full of ksour, dinosaurs and epic landscapes!

Exploring the Ksour (ancient hill forts) of southern Tunisia around Tataouine - Bradt Guides

Tataouine Governorate in southern Tunisia is most famous as one of the sites where George Lucas shot the original Star Wars films in the 1970s. However, it is also full of ksour: fortified granaries built by the local tribes between the eleventh and nineteenth centuries. Join me as I drive the 50km Maztouria Loop to the south-east of Tataouine and explore nine of the ksour of Jebel Abiadh (the White Mountains).

Some ksour are on mountains, some are on hilltops, a few are even on valley floors. Most are now abandoned, with a few being destroyed by French colonial forces due to local resistance to French rule. However, some of these incredible buildings have either been restored as historical sites, sites of pilgrimage for Star Wars fans or are in current use as housing, market places or even tourist accommodation!

Top place to visit in Tunisia | StarWars shooting spot Tataouine | Tunisia Travelling Day 7 Vlog #62

This is the last video of my trip to Tunisia. Tunisia is a beautiful place to visit and, today I leaving the incredibly beautiful village of Shenini. I am going to another town called Tataouine in Tunisia with three Italian friends (we stayed in the same hotel in Shenini). Tataouine is a city in Tunisia. The name of the town was immortalized in Star Wars as Tatooine, but most of the filming was not done here, but at Matmata.

I was in Tunisia for 9 days. During these 9 days, I visited different cities from the North to the South of the country.
Had countless memorable experiences, ate amazing food, and saw wonderful sights and places. I am sharing all this with you through this Tunisia series blog.

Jaw dropping Tataouine, Tunisia Ksar Oualed Soltane | Sousse to Tataouine Louages | Indians Explor

We went to the south of Tunisia, to the desert town of Tataouine, which was the inspiration behind the name for the planet of Tatooine in George Lucas' Star Wars - Luke Skywalker's home planet. We headed to Ksar Oualed Soltane from there, which was a Star Wars film set and enjoyed every moment.

Tataouine was an incredible experience, the locals made the trip extra special with their kind attitude and helpful gestures.

Tunisian Dinar is a closed currency which means you cannot bring in or take out any TND cash to/from Tunisia.

1 TND = 1000 millims and you need to carry enough coins.

As of Sep 2023, the bank notes mostly used are of 5, 10, 20, and 50 denominations and the coin denominations are 1,2 and 5 TND and 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 milims.

لم نر الكثير من السياح الهنود في تونس. لكننا أحببنا كرم الضيافة للتونسيين.

Tunisia Visa for Indian Passports in Sep 2023 :

As of Sep 2023, Indian passport holders need pre-arranged visas to Tunisia from an overseas Tunisian consulate. We applied from the consulate of Tunisia in Nice, France and the process was time consuming.

Visa Fees: 75 Euros each (cash only)

Documents submitted: Passport copy, Residence Proof in France, Filled in and signed Application Form, Photograph, Hotel Bookings (Booked on Booking.com, having accommodation proof is mandatory for Tunisia tourist visa) and round trip flight tickets

20th July 2023: Submitted application, paid visa fees, they did not keep the passport with them.

12th Aug 2023: Went to the consulate for a follow up on the visa processing, they told us our file reached the Tunisian Ministry on 26th July, decision was still pending.

25th Aug 2023: Got a call from the consulate that the visa has been approved and to come with our passports.

25th Aug 2023 (same day): Went to the consulate and got the visa stamp.

The entire process was pretty straight forward and simple, the hardest part being the wait from 20th July to 25th Aug. Normal processing time for Tunisia visa here is around 3-4 weeks.

Tunisian Desert and its Star Wars sets (Tunisia, 2005)

What makes the south of Tunisia so special? An ancestral culture and a vast and remote sandy landscape that seems from another planet, so much so that George Lucas chose it as a set to recreate, precisely, Skywalker's planet: The fictional planet Tatooine, from the Star Wars universe.

Follow us on Facebook:

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.

Tunisia's Abandoned Ancient City in the Sky (Guermessa, Tataouine) - Bradt Guides تونس

Today we explore the wonderful site of Guermessa in Tataouine Governorate, Tunisia. This was once an impregnable Amazigh fortress (ksar), perched on top of a mountain in the Dahar range of Tunisia's south-east, dating back to the seventh or eighth century CE. Today it is completely abandoned, but you can still explore the extensive ruins, which have recently been refurbished, including housing, an olive oil press, a mosque, a shrine and ancient graves where human remains are visible today due to weathering of the burial stones. This should definitely be a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is amazing!

Visite du village à Chenini

Nous avons visité à Chenini un village dans la montagne troglodytique berbérophone du sud de la Tunisie qui se trouve à 18 kilomètres de Tataouine. C'est une belle expérience à vivre et à découvrir pour les touristes.

DOURIET, TUNISIA

Douiret is a ruined Berber village in the Tataouine district in southern Tunisia. Located on a hilltop near a modern village of the same name, Douiret was a fortified granary, or ksar (plural ksour.) Like other ksour created by North African Berber communities, Douiret was built on a hilltop to help protect it from raiding parties. Douiret is a regular stop on southern Tunisia's ksar trail, along with the villages of Chenini, Ksar Ouled Soltane and Ksar Hadada.

The old village of Douiret is located 22 km southwest of Tataouine in a rugged mountainous region. The old village transformed into ruins is surmounted by its citadel or ksar overlooking troglodyte houses dug in the mountain and aligned in a meandering fashion along its cliff. A path of about 3 km is lined up with abandoned dwellings mostly in ruins with the exception of the eye-catching white mosque (known as 'the palm tree mosque' or Jamaa ennakhla) at midway and a couple of renovated dwellings serving as a showcase and/or an atypical motel to host visitors and tourists.

OurTour take in the amazing landscape on route to Douiret near Tataouine, Tunisia

Some days I just can't believe the views we see through our motorhome's windscreen. Driving to Douiret from Chenini near Tataouine in Tunisia the landscape looked almost like we were on a film set. The now abandoned Berber village of Douiret also impressed. For more details and photos from our tour of Europe, Morocco and Tunisia in a motorhome, please visit our website OurTour.co.uk

베르베르족이 실제 거주하는 집을 수소문해서 찾아 갔다. 우리로 치면 한옥마을 같은 곳. 집 입구에는 복을 부르는 의미로 손바닥과 물고기를 그려 놓는다고 한다. 미지의 세계로 들어가는 입구 같다. 보통 2층집 같은 구조로 되어있다. 흙바닥에 돗자리를 깔아 놓은 이 곳이 거실이다. 거실 옆에 부엌이 있다. 절구통이 있는 게 무척 친근하다. 그래도 가스레인지는 사용하는구나. 밧줄을 타고 올라가야 하는 이층은 곡물창고로 쓴다고 한다.
