Hi,
Does anyone know of any guides in Libya other than Fessano or Sami of Almuheet tours. I am having no luck with either at the moment.

hi farmer how did you get on with fessano tours?i spoke with a guy yeasterday called hadi bkai about going there early next year.i priced it for me alone and they emailed this back:


hello costs are very clear on the link provided below:

He'll be in touch
 

Keep trying with Hadi, he's normally very efficient though.

He'll do everything visa for you, don't bother trying to deal direct with any Libyan embassies yourself.

Hi,

Thanks for the advice. Strange because Sami was in touch with a price etc which I agreed to but I have heard nothing for ten days now. Maybe the thought of travelling in a sidecar in August really did put him off!

Libyan fixer
 

Hi, there is a guy called Nuri, I haven't yet used him but plan to when we travel to Libya this autumn. He did the fixing for the Long Way Down, and helped this family out - Diesel and Dust -with guides for their trip in Libya, which they rave about on their site.

If you pm me I'll give you his number.

Best wishes
