Europe/Turkey to Egypt

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone had any recent news about transpo options from Europe/Turkey to Egypt?
Are there any ferries running into Port Said or Alexandria?
Thanks,
Jordan

There's a stuck thread on all this here:
http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...pt-index-63126
Got to the last post.

Short version; ferry to Israel > cross to Jordan > ferry to Nuweiba, Egypt [south Sinai].

This is by far the least painful way of getting to Egypt.

Why you dont go through Greece and skip the Israel & Sinai headaches?

Check this: https://braytravels.wordpress.com/20...og-post-title/

Good luck in any case!

Travellers have managed Sudan via Israel for years.
Sudan is not one of the strict ones and there are easy ways round it.
