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.
