From U.A.E to Switzerland!
 
I'm planning to drive from U.A.E, which is my country, hoping to get to Switzerland, starting end of May this year, if anyone has semilar plan, welcome.

After seeing many options, I found the best to drive to Turkey, take ferry to Italy and continue driving to Switzerland.
((UAE, Saudi border, Jordanian border, Syrian border (bab Hwaa)!, Turkey (Cezme) and Ferry to Italy.

Anybody, has any better suggestions or better route!

I was planning to drive from Turkey to Switzerland, but ppl. advice me to avoide (Romania, Bulgaria, Zegreb and those countries) which is not safe to drive on.

Waiting for your advice.

Don't believe everything you hear.Any country can be unsafe if you go to the wrong place at the wrong time.I can't speak for Zagreb but i went through Hungary,Romania,Bulgaria a couple of years ago on route to Turkey.Came back on Cesme to Chios(near Lesbos) ferry then Fast Ferry to Athens.Rode around Greece for a while then Ferry from Patras to Ancona.Como on the Swiss border is about 500km from Ancona.
There are many options of crossings to Italy from Greece but Turkey there seems to be only a few.
Have a great trip whatever way you go !

If you're heading into switzerland, drop me a line and if I will be there, I would love to offer you a beer or two! Would be interesting to speak with you about your trip!

I'm right now in South america but will probably be back in 4 months or so
