Travel insurance is always a good idea when traveling in case of unforeseen circumstances, especially in Libya. We do not provide travel insurance, but recommend www.travelexinsurance.com.

It is advisable to bring a small medical kit with you while traveling including things such as Band-Aids, antibiotic ointment, Ibuprofen, Benadryl, Imodium, and hand sanitizer, but there are also pharmacies in Libya where you can purchases medicines that you may need. Any prescription medication should be brought with you for the entire trip.

No vaccinations are required for travel to Libya, but there are several recommended ones such as yellow fever, tetanus, Hepatitis A & B, and typhoid. If you have any questions, please check with your doctor.

We recommend that you drink bottled water while traveling in Libya. Although you may be fine drinking the tap water, it is just a precaution to guard against microbes such as amoeba. We would hate for you to miss a day or two of travel due to a stomach “bug” caused from the water. Be aware that you might find glasses in the hotel rooms, but please refrain from drinking the water.
