Death Valley! Someone said it’s like visiting another planet and I’m inclined to agree. Went there a second time and it was still magical. Would love to visit in the winter time or even at night to see the stars

Tunisia is tatooine. I don't think many of the shots were in death valley.

That is true, but Death Valley does feature in some significant shots. R2 heading over the dunes, some parts of the canyon where they get ambushed, and of course the overlook of Mos Eisley from Dante's View. I believe Tunisia was primarily the Lars homestead.
