If you don't want, you don't need to drive unpaved roads from Cape Town to Cairo, except for the northern part of Kenya, between Isiolo and Moyale. However from Isiolo northward there is still about 150 km newly paved road and from Moyale southward road construction has started. Now you have to drive only about 350 km unpaved. The section between Marsabit and the village of Torbi (200 km) is the most difficult, very stony (punctures!). See my first message in this thread.
