hello fellow hubbs!
this is a trip thats been long due and have gotten around deciding on the month of departure, May 2011. the date is yet to be decided.
had a few queries;
when applying for visas does one have to mention that the trip is an overland journey??
this is what i could figure till now; delhi(india), kathmandu(nepal), lhasa(china), kashgar(china), bishkek(kyrgyzstan), tashkent(Uzbekistan), Ashgabat(turkmenistan), tehran(iran)?? , Ankara(turkey), Istanbul(turkey), sofia(bulgaria) or athens(greece), bucharest(romania), budapest(hungary), vienna(austria), prague(czech republic), berlin(germany), we can do the whole european gambit of going into switzerland, italy, france, belgium, denmark, spain, portugal and then back to wherever the channel border crossing is into England and there on to London!!! its an approximate of fourteen countries. After turkey i have avoided all countries that dont fall under the EU......
from the above list of countries i gather that only Iran requires a CARNET. I am hoping that if thats the case that i could avoid it completely and take an alternate route through kazakhstan?!
My question is; am i right that none of the above mentioned countries require a 'CARNET'?
Would appreciate all the possible feedback.
