Libya to Egypt
 
Don't know if this post belongs here or in the Mid East but... We are currently stalled in Beijing/Erenhot with bike problems. Our original route was thru Mongolia to Moscow and then south to Istanbul. From there to Egypt via Lebanon, Syria and Jordan returning to Turkey from Haifa but with the current state of affairs that seems to be out. We are looking for an alternate route, possibly Turkey to Libya then to Egypt (we have a carnet). Lots of info re going west from libya but not much current info on heading east. Libya looks ok for a visa but I wonder about the need for a guide and border crossing plus unknown elements. Any info will be very much appreciated

>>> Libya looks ok for a visa

Apart from the hassle of entering Egypt, I believe that that is usually the stumbling block so if you have that you are sorted. Across the top no escorts needed.

If you have that...
 
Just to be sure Chris, are you referring to the carnet. Yes I do have a carnet and if that is the only MAJOR stumbling block, I think that is the route we will take.

Thanx for the help.
