Gabès Governorate tour packages cover the gateway to Tunisia’s south, where the Sahara meets the Mediterranean and a rare coastal oasis stretches behind the port. The Gabès Oasis has thousands of palm trees watered by springs, and inland Matmata is famous for its troglodyte houses dug into pits in the soft rock, one of which served as Luke Skywalker’s home in Star Wars. The Berber village of Toujane clings to a hilltop. Autumn to spring is the best time for the region.
