South Africa to Europe. East coast. April-ish 2016
 

I've been riding down the west coast these last few months and had an amazing time.

Keen to ride back and could be fun to link up with other travellers for a bit if not the whole thing.

I'm going to be on a tighter budget going back so will be camping as much as possible!

Riding a DR350.

What's your timeframe?

I'm setting off 1st week June, aiming to hit Cairo 1st week Sept.

If i'm going to catch you up lets have a beer on route. I'll be on a KLR650 and doing a mix of camping and cheap hotels.

Cheers
Andy

Hoping to be back for July for a wedding so not sure if we'll overlap. However you never know with these things so will keep you updated just incase!

I'm in Cape Town now, just arrived from 7 months in Central and South America. Planning a similar route. Would be interested in riding together for a bit. I'm on a 250.

I was thinking about doing your route up the east coast of Africa through Kenya-Ethiopia-Sudan-Egypt and then maybe through Libya to Morocco and via Ferry to Italy or Spain. I'm in Zambia at the moment.

However, I was told that Sudan is quite dangerous and a pain in the a** regarding Visa and travel permit. Further, I was told that you cannot "import" your bike to Egypt.

Did you encounter any of these problems? Would you say that it's doable to travel through Sudan at the moment? Did you encounter problems with the bureaucracy in Sudan or Egypt and if yes, how did you resolve them? Thanks in advance!
