The Longest Drive
 

Dear HU,

I am brand new to this forum, and somehow hope despite we are having 4 wheels that we are still welcome here.

I have been heading a project we call the longest drive The Longest Drive

we have done some non stop overland drives and our next challenge is from North cape to Cape Agulhas via London and Cape Town.

We do follow speedlimits and its not a race but we drive 24 hour from start to finish.

We did have a route planned, but due to the last days unrest in Egypt it means we need to look for alternative routes. And this is the reason why i came across this fantastic forum.

First of all did anyone here take the ferry from Iran to Kuwait or Saudi Arabia ?

How about the ferry from Jeddah to Sudan ?

I would appreciate all the help we can get in the planning of this trip, if you know of any realiable fixers in this part of the world.

Hope to hear from some helpfull members soon as we plan our trip to take place in April 2015.

Best regards
Jan Kalmar

The only regular ferry that I know of is the one to the UAE.

Saudi visas are very hard to get.

No RHD cars allowed in Oman or Saudi, just in case you are using them.

Don't think that Egypt is too bad these days?

Thanks

We have a LHD, and I think We can get Saudi visa. Today the egypt embassy said they have not heard of the problems hmmm

please keep the suggestions comming
