The exterior of the Star Wars Lars Homestead. Just out there, on the salt flat. Follow the tracks left by other vehicles trekking out here. There was one unattended souvenir stall, with a plate of money, working on an honesty system.

We watched the scene from Star Wars Episode 4, A New Hope. Just to familiarise ourselves with the scene, again. And then in the morning, worked out this is where Luke peers down to his aunt.

This hotel in Matmata, Tunisisa, was the filming location for Star Wars, episode 4. It was used for inside shots of the Lars Homestead, Luke's uncle and aunt.

We stayed at Hotel Sidi Idriss, Matmata. Each room in the hotel was named after a character from Star Wars, or a significant name associated with the franchise. In actual fact, the hotel was already a hotel when chosen to be used in filming. A Berber village, and troglodyte cave structure, it would have been a fascinating stay, even without any movie association.
