- In today's episode, we bring you along on our days in and around Tozeur in South/Central Tunisia. We explore the surroundings, including the abandoned Mos Espa Star Wars set, the beautiful Chebika Oasis, and some of Chott El Djerid Salt Lake.
We are Oskar & Dan, two boys from Sweden who decided to change the course of our lives, drop out of university, and live life full-time. We're trying to see and learn as much about the world as possible while we're young. Right now, we are working to visit 100 countries before the end of 2022🌍 Check our CZcams About page for more details👨🏼🤝👨🏻❤️

Thank you et merciii for watching😍 Would you want to visit the Star Wars set or do you think it seems overrated?😉
It is really overrated. You guys were so patient driving there to find basically nothing. I far preferred your visit to the beautiful oasis.
I suppose complete film "sets" like that are becoming rarer since there is so much CGI now but it was looking a little tired and I may have gotten a little annoyed at the hard selling, even though I was and still am a Star Wars Fan. I like long drives though but the oasis seemed more interesting as a destination.
It was good back at the days but now it's just abandoned place with full scammers
❤️❤️❤️ I was in grade school the year the first Star Wars movie was released, went to see it with my friends/neighbors, and honestly couldn't follow it at all; the plot was lost on me but the effects were cool. I went back and watched all of them a few years ago as an adult, and finally got it; I appreciate the movies but I'm not a fanatic, but I loved this video. Camel Crossing!!!😂 So cute.
Was down that way a few days ago - I'd massively, massively recommend heading into the Sahara for overnight camping with a local guide to anyone spending time down there. Easily the part that made the bus journey from Tunis worth it. Also - just in case it helps anyone out, the Tozeur train station was abandoned years ago, if taking public transport to get there, take the bus.
أنا زرت هاذي الدولة أكثر من تسعه مرات هاذه الدولة من أجمل ما زرت فالعالم جمال وطبيعه وشمس فالصيف وثلوج فالشتاء هاذه الدولة دولة تونس العضيمه الكبيرة فريدة من نوعها تحيه من جمهوريه مصر العربيه
I am from the 1970's Star Wars era generation and it was fascinating to hear from Dan that some of the filiming was done in southern Tunisia. It certainly fits. Learned something today!
Also the name of the planet Tatooine where this scene is filmed comes from the name of the city Tataouine
Very happy that you visited my country 🇹🇳🇹🇳❤️❤️❤️ Come back again to see Tabarka,Bizerte,Sousse,El Jam where we have a beautiful coliseum.Happy you liked the food 😍
I may not be Dan whom you were addressing, but I visited your country back in 2018. Absolutely loved and wish I had known then what I do now having watched the video
one of the most beautiful countries in the world that I have visited and it is not expensive
Wow. Just wow. I was in Tunisia back in 2018... I didn't even know the Chabika Oasis and town even existed. Went to Al Dougga (Ancient Roman Historical Site) - As well as El Jem and the old Medina of Sousse. Don't regret anything I experienced on the trip obviously, but I wish I had more time I suppose is all I can say.
You know what’s hilarious 😂 I’m always driving back and forth between tozeur and tunis and I always see the " pay attention of camels" signs but I’ve never came across a single camel and you guys had an entire tribe welcoming you 😂
Hey Boys - That was AWESOME, I'm not just a travel buff,but,like Dan a huge "Star Wars" fan. Your visit to the set brought back memories of school holidays 1976. We were already in Egypt & my father got a message from his friend Alec Guinness, whom he'd met whilst advising on "Lawrence of Arabia" in the early 60s! So that was how my whole family made our way to Tunisia for the first time & got to meet Mr Guinness, a very young Mark Hamil,George Lucus & a group of people who are now household names! Ironically at the time Alec Guinness in particular, along with others were very dubious that this strange film was ever going to go anywhere😅😅😅
Amazing it's still there; it looks so shabby & deserted,in those days it was like a mini burning man - which I discovered much latter!
As usual a superbly produced & edited vid,as always a joy to be a fly on the wall as you two are nearly at your 100th country.
First Class entertainment as always,thank you both for sharing ,looking forward to next part as it looks like we might be seeing some of the amazing ruins.
Very best wishes to you&yours💥👊👏👏👏💙💙👌👋⭐'s💯✌
I’ve been there before a few times and I love it!

Welcome to Tunisia💟
I would have recommended you to visit Tozeur by plane from Carthage international airport to Tozeur Nefta airport to avoid driving for long hours it's bit exhausting especially if you 're not used too( it takes only one hour 10 mnts through intern flight) ,anyways you are always welcome we cherish your great content about our country 😍❤👌🏻🇹🇳
Welcome to Tunisia 🇹🇳 🇹🇳
You should go visit Sousse next, their tourist port, Kantaoui and Medina are really beautiful. Also the old Amazigh town Takrouna, I recommend it so much.
Nice to read, we're gonna visit sousse this friday! Im very excited and I know your comment is a few months old but just wanted to let you know we'll be checking these places out! If you read this, any other tips are very welcome
@@rangasux I didn't read this on time, unfortunately. I would have recommended the town of Hergla too. I hope you had a good time in Sousse!
keep on going with this superb content 🤙🏻, like always, cheers from 🇱🇺🤩
🙏❤️
When you're done with your 100 countries, I'd love for you guys to do a video on how you book and find flight deals!
Tunisia! (We shouldn't be so surprised, really!)

0:27 the Thai connection. Anantara resorts belong to the Minor Group of Mr. Heinecke , headquartered in Bangkok. Didn’t know they had this gem in the desert.
Awesome job you guys just one more to go.
So very cool. I was 10 when the Original Star Wars came out. And still have some of the original action figures.
That's so awesome!
I'm loving the new commentary style on the videos, the snarky comments in white font. Quite different from other content folks, good job
Thanks Noa!

Apparently Chebika in the Kairouan area is different from Chebika Oasis!! Dang that’s confusing
Hi guys. I am going to Tunisia in Feb 2024. Can u access Mos Espa set with just a car? Do i need a 4 wheel drive? Was afraid of getting stuck in a sand dune or something lol
Yes you can access it with a regular car! The path was much better than we expected :)

Hey dan & osker whats it like as a gay couple travelling around Tunisia.
keep up the good work
@@davidknox5929 because me and my boyfriend are doing Egypt and Tunisia after Christmas. Does that help u
@@noel4137 Nobody will bother you as long as you dont display any intimacy in public. Thats frowned upon in islamic countries , not only for gay couples but in general.
You won't face any issues getting a king sized bed in a hotel or anything like that.
Just avoid PDA (also applies to straight couples) and never explicitly state your orientation especially to random strangers or police.
Feel free to visit any queer events / film festivals if your visit coincides with them. Refer to Mawjoudin and other associations for the schedules.
@@helali_s thanks this will help a lot
@@noel4137 I know that, don’t act like it and don’t hold hands, kiss or show n’y emotion towards each other. Being that way in the country will get you in a lot of trouble and if you act just like normal friends there’s no problem in that. It’s because I’m secretly one( you know what I’m talking about) and I’m keeping it a secret in Tunisia
Tunisia is not Sahara and kairawane lm sad about this video my country is not this
Actually the Wikipedia page you show in the video is about Chebika, Kairouan. Here’s a link to Chebika, Tozeur 😉 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebika,_Tozeur
