hey, i honestly couldnt tell you how much a driver and car would be for the day, maybe between 50-100 lyd, or about 70usd max, but quite honestly, you might be best off just taking a taxi, and haggling for a day rate with him.

most of gadafis palaces have been ransacked, destroyed, or are currently being used by the brigades as bases, i know his main compound, baab al azziziya was destroyed, but they left a small part open. ive been down there but couldnt find the house that wasnt destroyed. maybe further out of tripoli there might be some of his houses that werent destroyed, but im not sure

i just tried to search yello pages for libyan tours, and nothng came back for a search, so not sure what to tell you.
