Cruise Operators

Cruising by Tripoli'

 

As the home of the best preserved Roman architecture outside Italy, Libya is becoming one of the hottest holiday destinations in the Mediterranean world. If you are a Mediterranean cruise tour operator thinking of including Libya among your top destinations, then you have come to the right page. We can do all the necessary work needed to add Libya to your list of destinations, from arrival to departure.  All Greek and Roman sites are located along the Libyan coast and thus are within easy reach. We can arrange visits to either Roman Tripolitania with its magnificent Leptis Magna, Tripoli's cosmopolitan atmosphere and extraordinary Sabratha, or visit Greek Cyrenaica and explore some of the best Greek remains at Cyrene and Apollonia, as well as visit some of World War II cemeteries and sites of Tobruk.

Tripolitania

  • Tripoli: a chance to see some of Tripoli's unique places, like the Red Fort, Tripoli's shores, the Old Medina, the Market, the Green Square, and some of Libya's best treasures at the the National Museum.
  • Sabratha: about 60 km west of the capital Tripoli: colonnaded three-floor theatre by the sea, impressive collection of buildings, busts, columns and several temples, like those of Isis, Serapis and Liber Pater.
  • Leptis Magna: about 120 km east of the capital Tripoli: under the influence of its Berber first African Roman emperor Septimius Severus Leptis became an important trading port, and enjoyed a monumental architectural development and spectacular splendour: the beautiful Amphitheatre, the colonnaded street, the Severn Forum, decorated with the Gorgon head, the massive Basilica, the Hippodrome, the Hadrian Baths, the Temples of Hercules, Roma and Augustus, the Tiberio Arch, the Nimphaeum, the Oea Door, and the Palaestra.
  • Zwara: about 110 km west of Tripoli: the home of Libya's best beaches: clean golden sand slowly sinking into pure clear water, under brilliant sunshine. Truly unique beaches, unlike any other beaches in the whole Mediterranean.

 

 

Cyrenaica

  • Greek Cyrene and Apollonia, about 200 km east of Benghazi, are among the major tourist attraction of Cyrenaica.
  • Tobruk is the home of several WW II sites and cemeteries, including the Allied Cemetery, the French Cemetery, Knightsbridge Cemetery and the German Cemetery.
  • Benghazi: Libya's second largest city.
