Factfile
Accommodation Ratings:
The following key is intended as a guide to
the type of accommodation listed for each night stop. We stress
that standards may vary and reserve the right to make changes as
necessary without warning.
Hotels / Pensions /
Lodges
H+ : Usually twin bedded
rooms, normally with private facilities. Local grading 2/3/4 star.
Local Style Accommodation
L : Could be twin bedded but
more usually multiple share or dorm style, sometimes mixed sex,
sleeping arrangements. Normally shared facilities.
Luggage: One main piece of
baggage and a day bag. Total allowance: 44lbs/20kgs. Please note
many Libyan hotels do not have porters and you will need to carry
your own luggage.
Clothing: Pack essentially
for 'All Tours' plus ‘Hot Conditions’Summer (Apr to Sept): Clothing
should be lightweight. However, a warm fleece and/or a warm sweater
is strongly recommended as the desert can become very cold at night
– even in the summer. Winter (Oct to Mar): Cold days and nights
where the night-time temperatures fall sharply. Therefore, much
thicker clothing is essential for cold days and colder nights. We
strongly recommend that you take warm clothing to sleep in (eg.
track suit or thermal underwear) as the quality of heating in
Libyan accommodation can be variable. Waterproof jacket and
trousers and a thick fleece are strongly recommended between
December and January.
Libya is a Muslim country and people may be
offended by shorts or revealing dresses, which can attract
unwelcome attention. Therefore, you should dress with respect for
local sensibilities. Women should also cover their heads when
entering a sanctuary, though in general, mosques are forbidden to
non-Muslim.
Footwear: Comfortable
shoes/trainers for exploring rocky and sometimes thorny sites, and
sandals for relaxing in.
Equipment: A day bag, torch
with spare batteries, sun hat, high factor sun cream, sunglasses, a
water bottle and a towel for the night in the guesthouse is
essential.
