India-Iran

[lucca12345]

Hello Caravanistunners!

I travelled to India overland through Central Asia, Pakistan and China. In India I met a friend and I want to do the same with him the other way round.
But Pakistan is a pain in the ass, so we'd like to get to Iran by ship from India. Directly seems impossible...

But is there a possibility to get to Bandar Abbas, or anywhere in Iran from India?
For example over Dubai or Oman?
Thanks a lot in advance for the new section for ferries in the gulf!
But how to get to the gulf from India??

I really really don't want to take a plane, but anything else!

Thanks a lot for any help and have a nice day

Lucca

Hi,

When have you done this trip through Pakistan?
Have you travelled with your own car?

There is no passenger service AFAIK so you need to get on a cargo ship. That's a matter of talking to the right people in the harbour, and waiting.

Well you would not be the first to go around Pakistan by ship. I heard of it before. Lot of hassle with the shipping, but people have done it, at least years ago. Hopefully you can find something on internet.
