British Airways has frequent flights to Tripoli, landing at Tripoli International
Airport. Located near the town of Bin Ghashir, Tripoli airport is 20
miles south of central Tripoli. After Tripoli flights take a taxi and refresh yourself
with a glass of sweet mint tea in a Tripoli cafe on Green Square or relax on one
of Tripoli's sandy beaches. Head for the walled old town, the Medina, to
soak up local history after flights to Tripoli, a city dating back 2500 years.
Travel to/from central Tripoli
After Tripoli flights take a black-and-white taxi into central Tripoli. If
you'd prefer a cheaper option and enjoy company on your journey, opt for a
shared yellow-and-black taxi to reach your Tripoli hotel. Both types of taxi
leave from outside Tripoli airport's Flight Arrivals area. Your journey
into central Tripoli will take around 20 minutes, depending on traffic.
Best of Tripoli
Stretch your legs after your Tripoli flight in the newer part of Tripoli, and enjoy
streets lined with Italian colonial architecture. Pass through the gates of
Tripoli's whitewashed Medina old town and turn the clock back a few
centuries. Then wander around the vast Red Castle dominating
Tripoli's skyline. Enjoy haggling in Tripoli's souk markets
for carpets and copper by day, and feel the Mediterranean breeze on a Tripoli
evening stroll through lively Green Square. Head out of Tripoli to the desert
to see Roman archaeological site Leptis Magna before return flights from
Tripoli. Buy nomadic tribe Tuareg jewellery, saffron and rose water to bring
back on your Tripoli flight.
