A hidden-gem canyon hike at the Star Wars set

We booked a hiking Tour through Wildyness. We met our guide Laid in the village of Sidi Bouhlel. The hike is really a hidden gem. Laid is very kind, speaking english fluently and showed us the beauty of this Canyon as well as the different spots of the famous STAR WARS FILM SET. An unforgettable day!
