Hargeisa to Laas Geel Cave Paintings to Berbera city to the Soaring Sheikh Mountains

3 DAY SOMALILAND TOUR FROM HARGEISA TO LAAS GEEL CAVES TO BERBERA TO SHEIKH MOUNTAIN

For short time travelers to Northern Somalia (Somaliland) this trip takes in some of the best highlights in a short span so you can clear up time for free exploration and enjoyment at the bookends, or if you are combining Somaliland with Southern Somalia or Djibouti or Eritrea, this serves as a quick and cheerful "Best Of" the North as well.

The trip stays at excellent midrange hotels and includes fantastic SUV's and guiding and security. We do not include food in the tour for flexibility and control for the client's budget, but can arrange all of the food if they'd like to get an accurate synopsis and cuisine-cross-section of Somaliland as well.

WORKING ITINERARY

Day 1: Hargeisa and the Horn Sites and Delights

Pickup from a hotel of choice or the international airport in Hargeisa, and we head around the cultural markets and historical monuments of Hargeisa, experience local every-day life, see the economic engines of industry and trade of the city, and villages and farms outside and the rural realities. 

Day 2: Ancient Caves and Prehistoric Coves  

We head to Dhagah Gure first to see ancient cave drawings, before heading to more at the famous Laas Geel Caves (which dates back to 9000 years BC, with astonishing history where many international tourists visit each and every day). The European Union and Somaliland government also launched a project to preserve this place, as Somaliland is still not officially recognized to access UNESCO aid. The day is spent touring archeology and history.

Day 3: Berbera Port and Beaches Tour and over to Sheikh Mountain 

We tour Berbera and the port of the ancient trade in the Mediterranean and Red Sea, and the coastal fishing villages. Berbera is not far from Hargeisa and the road infrastructure is good as the road is modernized by United Arab Emirates. We head to climb the cooler and soaring Sheikh mountain to top off our views and capstone our short odyssey in Somalialand.
