Turkey-Syria-Jordon-Iran-Turkey Circuit April - July 2011
Hello
I'm heading off on a Middle Eastern experience, shipping my bike from Australia to Turkey in April 2011 and doing a circuit down through Syria, Lebanon, Jordon then back up to East Turkey, a loop through Iran and back to the north of Turkey finishing up in Istanbul. I have 4 months to make the circuit starting in April and finishing in July. I'm not into speed, (I have a 1993 Honda dominator) I like to see places off the main roads, meet people and try to get a real feel for the country I'm travelling through. I don't need luxury, I'll be carrying a tent but also staying in accommodation when I need to. I don't mind travelling on dirt roads...well....ok, I have a small phobia about travelling down steep gravel roads and sand & I have a strained relationship but overall I'm ok. I don't have heaps of experience travelling overseas, I have travelled around Cambodia with a some people and that was great. So if you are heading that way, want to meet up for some of the trip or a drink or two, let me know! Cheers Adastra

Hi Helen,
I should be in that area around then - its all part of my Australia to Africa trip. I am currently in India waiting on my Pakistan visa (from australia... long story) then I shoud be moving across the middle east, visiting Pakistan, Iran , Iraq (if i can get into it) Turkey, Syria, Jordan and onto Africa. So i think we might cross paths - please keep in touch! Danielle

Iran visa
Hello Adastra
I am a kiwi woman considering heading back to NZ on a motorbike but a bit hesitant about going alone esp across Iran and Pakistan. My ex suggested the following for Iran: Perhaps you can re-route thru the Stans, if you can't get a IR visa. :-) In any case, don't tell them that you are travelling by bike or overland. Visa will be refused. Tell only what they ask (golden rule when dealing with officialdom) and if they do ask tell them you will fly into Islamabad and you are going to travel to Gilgit and Hunza. So i guess you could try that. I am wondering if we could travel together for part of the route. I would like to see syria and jordan too but things a bit hot there at the moment !!! In all Arab countries in fact Get in touch anyway if you want to.. email probably best. cheers Jenny
