Hey Casper and Tiger,
I am from India and would be travelling from here till France and so the route query to find an economical way to enter Kazakh or Kyrgyz. At the moment it seems like China is a must. The route via Pakistan and Iran just might not be safe, considering i will be travelling with my wife and kids (7 and 11).
I will be keeping an eye out for what routes you guys eventually decide.
Off-topic - any idea why i do not get mails about new posts to my email id?

Hello!
I think traveling in Iran is safe, but it's not the case of Pakistan, and the road to Iran is not recommended at the moment apparently!
I have some quote from Chinese agencies, but expensive, so I'm still in search for a an other nice route from france to Nepal and go home!
That's a nice project to travel with your family andymaxman! 
Where do you live in India?
By the way, do you know any ship company to cross from Mumbai to Dubai?
ps: no idea about mails! I don't either receive them!

I live in Bangalore.
Try reaching these guys - Logistics Services, Air & Sea Freight Forwarders, Shipping, DUBAI ABU DHABI, U.A.E
They helped an expedition vehicle return back to India from London.
If you find luck and response from them, let me know, so i can reach out as well. 
Cheers,

Hello!
Great! I'll try to contact them as soon as possible!
I have also a number to contact for a crossing from Dubai to Mumbay for vehicle and passangers! But this is not a regular crossing, I have to call them for details
I'll let you know!
In this case, your route to France will pass through U.A.E, Iran and Turkey and so on! It will be another voyage!
Anyway, I'm still searching a solution to ride into China and pass in Nepal and India!
To be continued! 
Cheers!
