North Africa!
Hello,
I am posting with a query about travelling across North Africa. I am in the process of putting together a trip from originating in the UK to Egypt. However, I hope to be able to enter North Africa via Morocoo, and travel through Algeria, Tunisia, Libya and enter Egypt. To get back to Europe I am aware that travelling from Egypt into Israel, then onto Jordan and up into Turkey is an option, but complicated. Alternatively I was thinking of getting a ferry from Haifa to Cyprus and on to Turkey and back to Europe. I understand that the Morocan border with Algeria is and will remain closed for the foreseable future, but some people have mentioned going via Mauritania. I am aware of the dangerous aspects of the journey, however, I do feel that the journey is possible and achievable. I would greatly appreciate any views or input/advice that you could provide. I am a British citizen, and am I over 21.

Have a look here: http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...-shortly-55884
I, too, am hoping to go to Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia in the future - we'll have to wait and see as to whether the boarder closure changes

Nice but not
a good plan, unfortunately
The only "open" border to Algerie is In Guezzam, coming south from Niger. But nowadays... I came through in 2007, and I recently read about two Australians that managed to get through in 2010, and theres probably a few more. But, there is a big but. I agree with pecha72, forget the Mauri idea Haakon

Give it a go.
We can't all be going through the known and accepted routes If you cannot cross via Mauritania, you can always cross into Mali, Niger and then back up into Algeria.
