- Payment: deposit is not required. You pay nothing until the day of arrival in Libya.If arriving at Tripoli: a drive to Zwara, quick tour of the city, then a short drive to the fishing-village of Abu-kemmash, for a boat-crossing to Farwa. Farwa is a long and narrow strip of clean sand dunes, covered with small hills of palm trees, overlooking the sea on both sides, and is an excellent place for a weekend break by one of Libya's best beaches. As a local Libyan tour operator, we highly recommend this tour for a short, quite and private break away from busy city life. Visa Update: a new Libyan law issued last November requires all visitors to be part of a group of five or more. This means that this tour will be available only of the minimum of five has been reached.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
