Africa to Europe
Hi this is my first post
My mate and I are planning on riding from Cape town to London in 2017 as he lives in South Africa and i'm in the UK and are looking at the route/s that we could take up through the country.
while i'm sure there are many hurdles to come the first is the transit from Africa to the Europe mainland, after doing a fair amount of research there are only two possibilities
Eastside (Nile Route) which takes us to Egypt where as far as I can tell there is no longer a ferry to Europe. But I have found that there appears to be one from Israel to Greece.
Does anyone know if this is running and doable? (what with the Syrian conflict) or is there an alternative?
If not then it appears that we are left with the Westside which ends in Morocco which is fine as there are plenty of ferry crossings to the Europe mainland but my question about this route is how viable it is as most of the recent forum posts and info I can find tend to be heading south and stop at Mauri or Dakar but no further.
Any help or info would be greatly appreciated
