Ain Mizrag:  Your guide to the beauty and mystery of LIBYA

Discover Tripoli

Visit a city that's 2,500 years old. Wander amidst the winding streets and whitewashed walls of the ancient medina. Admire some of the greatest treasures of the Mediterranean in the Jamahirya Museum. Discover shops, restaurants, and the heart of modern Libya...

Discover Ancient Rome and Greece in North Africa

Discover why Leptis Magna is considered by many to be among the most magnificent Roman sites anywhere in the world. Buried (and preserved) for centuries under the desert sands, this may now be the best place to understand what the glory of a wealthy Roman city was really like.

Sabratha, the other great Roman gem, will overwhelm you with the grandeur of one of the largest and most impressive Roman theatres in the world.

Equally breathtaking, Cyrene, in eastern Libya, can still bring alive the glories of the Greeks' first overseas settlement.

Leptis Magna, Sabratha and Cyrene are all UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Discover the Sahara

More than 90% of the country is desert. To truly know Libya, you should experience the breathtaking grandeur of the Sahara.

Those who have taken our 4x4 camping tours of the Fezzan (south-west Libya) have told us it was among the most memorable and moving travel experiences of their lives.

You'll travel through, and camp among the soaring dunes of the giant Ubari and Murzuq Sand Seas and explore the awesome Acacus mountains. Marvel at the exquisite rock art spread throughout the region, some of it dating back 12,000 years, depicting the area before it became a desert, still alive with crocodiles, giraffes and other wildlife. Cool off with a swim in the salt-water Ubari Lakes.

For those looking for even more remote attractions, consider our "Volcanic Sahara" tour, which visits forbidding plains of volcanic basalt that make up Harouj al Aswad ("the Black Mountains"), then travels through the Petrified Forest, to the unforgettable experience of the Waw an Namus dormant volcano in one of the remotest places on earth.

Discover Ghadames

Known as "The Pearl of the Sahara", and another UNESCO World Heritage site, this is one of the most remarkable surviving ancient cities of the Sahara. While the city of Ghadames is still thriving, the ancient town is now mostly deserted, and you can explore its labyrinthine, covered whitewashed streets and imagine the time when it was once one of the major trading centres of the northern Sahara.

Discover the Libyan People

Invariably, one of the strongest memories visitors take away from Libya is that of the warmth, friendliness and generosity of the Libyans they meet. The people of Libya are truly our greatest natural resource. Come and make some new friends!
