Travel Blogs from Libya
Ras Al Jadir, Sabratha and Janzour

Awsome colosseum - but that's about it.
This is a top pick! Impressive baths and colosseum but my vote's still with ...
Ruins and Caves
This is a top pick! And then we were off. Our Labyan driver, Whalid stated that there were no speed limits in Labya. I was a little concerned when there were only two lanes, but the Labs make it into three. If you are overtaking, you sit in the middle of the road. Yes, I ...
Inside Labya
This is a top pick! After walking through No Mans Land, we arrived at the Labyan side of the customs police. We were meant to meet a guide here, well somewhere as Labya can only be visited as a tourist with a guide, and trust me, this is not cheap. If the Jews out there ...
Are They The Best
This is a top pick! Sometimes you think to yourself, what the fuck did I get out of bed for today, and today it felt like it was one of those days. We had to drive around two hours we were told by Walid the Lab to get to Leptis Magna, supposedly the best Roman ruins in ...
The Last Day
This is a top pick! We packed our bags, turned off the free internet one last time and dumped our bags in the van. As usual, we had our two Labs with us, Walid and Yousef. We had over a two hour drive to get where we were going today. Qsar Al-Haj. It wasn't long before we ...
Trippin' in Tripoli
This is a top pick! As usual, we were forced into the van like cattle for the two minute drive into town. I really am sick of being driven around everywhere. We have been told that as we are tourists, it is much safer !!! I actually feel safer here than in London or Sydney ...
Day 83 - Just Roman Around
... warbling along happily to. I was on my way home: Take me home, coastal roads To the place where I belong Eastern Libya, Mountain Muammar Take me home, coastal roads Enough of this silliness. After a brief stop at the scenic viewpoint of ...
Day 79 - Libya Life To The Fullest
... chappie indeed. It was 2pm, I had plenty of fuel and a tarmac road ahead of me. Even the drivers in Libya seem more considerate! I hooned it to Tubruk, another site of mass death and destruction during WWII, caring even less than in ...
Tripoli to 40km East of As Sultan
... a thing or two about ablutions and hygiene. The Ruins are however very impressive and about the only thing we have seen to make Libya worth the trip. We headed on from Leptis with the idea of covering as much ground as possible. From Leptis Magna the ...
La porte du Sahara
Trois jours après notre arrivée, une tempête s'abat sur la région et met à mal notre avion. Aileron droit endommagé, élévateur cassé, compensateur détruit. Nous voici cloués au sol pour deux semaines! Une semaine pour que les pièces de ...
As Sultan to Cyrene
... We hit the road with the ambition of making Cyrene which is the best preserved site of Ancient Greek ruins located within Libya. The drive was pretty uneventful other than the guide (observing Ramadan) wanting to stop and purchase at every opportunity ...
Djerba to Tripoli
Day 11 We left Djerba in a bit of a rush after Dave realised the clocks move one hour forward in Libya from Tunisia and we had to meet our "guide" at the Libyan border at 10:30. By law, and at no small expense, we had to hire a guide/guard/fixer for the ...
At Sea
This morning the plan was to get up early and watch the sun rise. I guess I'll have to try that again tomorrow. It's more difficult not having a window than I thought - I have no frame ...
1er pays...
Premiere etape la Lybie, l aeroport est un grand couloir, je ne suis pas perdu, 2 heures d attente et c est ...
Sabratha & Tripoli
Hello all We had an early start yesterday, and headed for the border. The Tunisian side took us about one hour to get through, with customs being the hardest part. The customs dude took a liking to Petra, and mouthed "I love you" at least twice to ...
Le pays du renard
Notre arrivée est quelque peu surprenante. Il pleut et il fait froid. Je ne m'attendais certainement pas à ça. Mais après tout, c'est l'hiver ici aussi. Notre comité d'accueil nous amène à l'hôtel ou nous retrouvons Marc, un technicien et Gerry, ...
Cyrene and Tobruk
We kept on moving closer to the border and went to see the Zeus temple and Cyrene in the morning. Another two amazing sites. More of what we have already experienced, but here more of the Greek influence visible. The interesting thing about Cyrene was ...
Camping with the camels
After Leptis Magna we needed to cover some serious distance to get to the Egyptian border by morning of the 11th, so we put foot!! We made it passed Surt, and camped about 1 km off the main road. It was quite windy, so we found a sheltered spot behind a ...
Cyrene to Tobruk
... . We're not sure if something got left in translation there but were too keen to get our hotel to really care. Overall Libya has been a real experience. Stereotypes over come include Libyans being militant and anti-West. They have all been very friendly ...
Waaaaayyy big enough for two!
No Name Hotel Tripoli - not sure of the cost per night as it was bought as an expensive tour package! - tour booked over the web - HUGE twin room with balcony. Could have swung an elephant! - breakfast included - bed linen included - ...
Day 85 - Tripoli of a Lifetime
... and freakshow. My favourite bits were: 1) The near-anthropomorphisation of Gadaffi's baby-blue VW beetle. It went round Libya and N Africa handing out socialist pamphlets, won a couple of wars and drafted the constitution. 2) The two headed ...
shopping in tripoli
Here are some pics of the places I shop at. No David Jones or Rokeby road which makes every shopping trip an interesting, challenging and sometimes just a dirty and tiring experience. Luckily though, when there is a shop keeper around they are very ...
Tobruk
A few weeks ago we were lucky enough to be part of a group who flew 2hrs east on the private Woodside plane to Tobruk to attend remembrance services. We visited several commonwealth graveyards and memorial sights and the German memorial sight. We also ...
our sand castle in Libya
Well here are some pics of our house in Tripoli. I love living here, it is very unusual with lots of Morrocan features, a winding staircase in the middle and lots of chandeliers so I call it my castle. Alot of the time it is my sand castle because sand ...
