Ferries to Israel and Egypt from Turkey and Greece
I'm just putting this out there for anyone who might be looking to do this trip in the near future. I recently enquired with Grimaldi about their vehicle ferry services but decided not to continue with the plan as I couldn't find a reasonable route and price through Egypt.
It was a very tedious process over a week but in summary there are weekly services between these locations. The best way to get a response is to email cargo@grimaldi.napoli.it and they're usually pretty quick at getting back, especially if you follow up with a call to +39081496111.
- Price Piraeus to Ashdod - EU297 + EU95 free-in + "customs formalities"
- Piraeus to Alexandria - EU224 + EU95 + "customs formalities"
- You can't travel with the vehicle
- You should be fine if you book 4-5 days in advance
- Takes 3-4 days
- The final schedule is usually set a month before departure
Hope that's of help to someone!
