Europe - Sudan without entering Egypt??
 
Is it possible to go overland by 4x4 from Libya to Sudan without crossing Egypt? Or by boat from Jordan to Port Sudan? :helpsmilie:

Cheers

Dodging the Carnet.....???

All my research into your question led no where. The hasstle factor was off the scale.

I didn't want to pay the carnet costs for the privilage of Egypt - which I've been to before but am forced to go there enroute to Sudan.....

Plus there's the Ferry at Wadi Haifa - more €€€€€ - with the greatest of respect to Egyptians - they know how to turn a few shillings from you.

I'd be interested to know if you find a way to do it...

We met a couple in Ethiopia who Drove to Saudi Arabia from Germany then got a ferry across to Sudan to avoid Egypt on their way south.

I'm going Sudan to ethiopia, Djibouty, Yemen Oman and Dubay, you could reverse that :)

Ferry costs?
 
Hi StevenD, I'm interested in in the ferry costs, timetable etc. from the route you are taking. Can you let us know?

Last info I have here is that the ferry Iran-UAE is no longer running. No problem for bikes, as there is still the passenger ferry, but cars would have to be shipped. Search for recent posts by trui-gaea.

Mind you, the Iranians in Bandar Abbas made the ferry almost as much hassle as shipping...
