Subject: Would you drive in Turkey/Egypt?
I was thinking about renting a car to drive from Athens to Turkey and then to Cairo. Can anyone tell me if this would be advisable? I don't know if there are trains running through there. I just like to be able to see the country as I'm traveling which is why I'm considering something besides flying to those destinations. I know, thanks to you all that I shouldn't drive in the big cities but to get from point a to b to c. I did that in Spain and in England and Scotland but I'm well aware that's a different scenario in the Middle East. BTW, I'm traveling alone.

Thanks for any and all info.
