Libyan visa
Hi
I am a bit late in answering, but just in case you still need to get that Libyan visa. If you want to go South you will have to have a guide and therefore need to go through an agency. They will arange the visa for you, so you can pick it up at the border. The problem is of course finding a good agency. Here is the one we used this April (for more detailed information check our webpage). Shati Zuara Tours - Mr. Haji Ben Kalifa e-mail: shati_zuara@yahoo.com, info@shatizuara.com web: www.shatizuara.com phone: 00218 913 222 418 fax: 00218 25224 606 We agreed on the following prices: Visa and border service - 65 Euros per person (including the 50 Euros the Libyan government charges for the visa) Border service for the bikes - 25 Euros (not including cost for insurance, license plate and carnet) Guide - 25 Euro per day without car, 65 Euro per day with his own 4x4 car As far as we could tell, this is a one man operation. Mister Haji was very helpful and professional in setting this up. During our stay in Libya we called him various times when there was a disagreement with the guide and things always got sorted out. The guides as far as we could tell got subcontracted from other operators. The guide we ended up with did not speak any of 'our' languages but only arabic, which was at times a real problem. So when setting things up make sure you let Mr. Haji know that you want a guide who speaks one of your languages. Other than that we can really recommend Mr. Haji. |
