Trip to Libya - Easter 2008

After many years, a dream finally comes true: with friends (in three 4x4s) we'll visit Libya and go deep into the Sahara.

Visiting Libya with your "own" 4x4 is not so simple. To obtain a visa you need to register with a local travel agent.

Throughout the trip you will be escorted by an official guide and a policeman. You then need to hire a local 4x4 (i.e. Land Cruiser) for them that will be driven by an additional "driver".

For safety reasons and to defray all these costs, it is advisable to go in a small group of cars. As such, there will be four cars in our convoy:
- Fabienne, André, Fannie & Lucien in an IVECO van (obviously the 4x4 version)
- Véronique, Aline, Blaise & Jonathan in a green Land Cruiser
- Denise, Bernard & Patricia in our grey Land Cruiser. We had invited Patricia as none of our daughters could come along.
- Musa the guide, Ahmed the policemen & Naser the owner/driver in a white Land Cruiser.
