Website: www.saharafriendstours.com

Project Description:

The travel agency specializes in tours to the Libyan Sahara and therefore offers clients the benefit of their considerable knowledge and experience of these remarkable countries. They also specialize in tailor-made itineraries, thus affording a flexibility not normally available with group tours. If you want to spend a little more time haggling over a purchase in the bazaar, or immersing yourself in the tranquility of a mosque, you can do so without worrying about holding up a tour party. With your own private vehicle and guide, you are assured of one-to-one attention at all times - this is also the best way to meet local people. The agency do offer a number of group tours. These are kept small to retain a personal touch.
Libya offers a wide range of sights you can find on the Unesco List of World Cultural Heritage:
1. Leptis Magna, 2. Sabratha, 3. Cyrene, 4. Acacus area, 5. Ghadames

Sahara Friends Tours's Story:
The state country of Libya offers a universe of manifold landscape scenes: unlimited sand dunes, lush palm gardens, deep blue lakes in the desert, stunning bizarre rock formations. On our frequent travels with Sahara Friend Tours we witnessed outstanding ancient culture and fossil signs of our own past using both 4x4 cars and the camel, spending memorable evenings at the camp fire, passing unforgettable time with Bedouins and Tuaregs visiting their festivals. Needless to say, watches were not necessary for us. The sun and the moon determined our day, temporarily leading a life in harmony with the rhythm of pure nature and the country. We only concentrated on the basics of life. You experienced you only needed very few things. To be happy you do not need abundance. Carefully we treated the precious nature, no rubbish was left behind a camp site. The pure condition of nature was very much appreciated and this message was truly forwarded by our charming travel guides.
