Hi,

My name is Tony Gahegan and I am travelling around the world on my motorbike.

My website is www.tgon.co.uk

I am still in Europe but will be heading into Africa in a month or two.

I want to get from Morocco to Egypt and there are a few problems with this.

Firstly the border with Algeria is closed, secondly Libya.

I am willing to take boats, ferries, cargo trains, cargo ships... Anything.

I just need to travel with my motorbike.

Does anyone know how I can achieve this?

As I see it there are three possible solutions.

1 – Travel back to Italy, after visiting Morocco, to get the ferry from Venice to Alexandria. The problem with this is that the ferry is currently not running, although there have been stories that it will start running again next month.

2 – Travel back to Turkey, after visiting Morocco, to get a ferry to Israel then drive to Egypt over land. The problem with this is that I will be doubling back on myself through Europe again. But I did miss out on Turkey the first time round, maybe this would be a good opportunity to see it.

3 – Go to Egypt the long way around. Basically drive south from Morocco, possibly as far as South Africa, then head north again, to Tanzania, then go to Egypt after I have stayed in East Africa for a while. The problem with this is the time it will take and the amount of money I may have to spend.

If anyone knows another solution I would be happy to hear it.
