Shipping down West Africa
 

Due to the closure of the Nigeria/Cameroon border i am looking into alternates.

Gimaldi and RMR shipping have potential according to their web sites. Has anyone used them to get around west africa? Are there others i can approach?

Reply from RMR:

Dear John
We have checked with the line and unfortunately have to reject.
The route is possible but there is no interest from the carrier to accomodate motorcycles and passengers.

As a fellow motorcycle enthousiast, I do wish you the best of luck with your endeavour to reach capetown!


Met vriendelijke groeten

I have previously suggested folks contact Safmarine in Walvis Bay (Namibia) for information regarding shipping down the west coast to southern Africa

Thanks Margaret - I have noticed posts about this route - That would be a last resort for me because the amount of land travel I would miss out on.
