* Please note:

1. You will have to pay for Egypt Entry visa twice .
First time when you arrive at Cairo Airport on day 01 and second time when you
arrive from El Salloum border on day 05 .

2. The hotels in Tobruk are very basic . The best hotel in Tobruk
(Al Jaghboub Hotel) is only 2 stars . The agent in Libya suggests to book
accommodation in an area called Al Burdi where they can book
a new 4* hotel called Al Burdi Hotel (which is more expensive , but a better
standard than Al Jaghboub).
The drive from Al Burdi to Tobruk is 90 minutes .

3. The information required for arranging the entry visa to Libya is as follows :-
a) passport's details to be sent three weeks before arrival date
b) Title, Full name, Nationality, Date of birth, Place of birth, Occupation, Passport
number, Date of issue and Date of expiry.

Once we have the above info, the Libyan agent will apply locally and will normally
get the visa authorization letter only 02 days prior to group's arrival. Once they have
the authorization; they will send us a scanned copy via email for the group to use on
the Egypt side of border, and the original copy will be with the Libya tour leader
waiting for the group at the border.

4. Please note that the Libya tour leader and transport will only be allowed to the
no-mans-land between the Egypt and Libya side of border.

Please contact me for any further details.
Await your feedback
