Tunneling is one of the most direct results of quantum mechanics, and a hallmark of interlayer exciton formation in semiconducting van der Waals heterostructures. Here, we introduce a new contact-free terahertz nanoscopy technique to trace ultrafast charge dynamics in both conducting and non-conducting materials. We demonstrate < 50 nm spatial and subcycle temporal resolution and probe the interlayer tunneling across an atomically sharp WSe2/WS2 interface. Pronounced variations of the formation and annihilation of excitons emerge as a direct result of nanoscale strain and changes in atomic registry. Our results show the potential of this technique for revealing how ultrafast tunneling shapes the functionalities of a broad range of condensed matter systems.
