Ships from Brazil to Africa

Your Question

Hello! I was thinking of visiting your lovely city and I’m very excited
about doing so. I’m meeting a friend there who I was planning to stay with
for a while, and as a thank-you for letting me stay there, I was going to
surprise him by taking him to Cape Town, South Africa (somewhere he’s always
wanted to go) after my stay in Brazil. The problem is though that he has an
extreme fear of flying, so taking a six or so hour along trip would be
unthinkable for him. So what I was wondering is if there is a ship or boat
that sails to Africa, or if there was some other way we could get there?

I have been doing some research and I found a site that you might be interested in if you are considering traveling by freighter from Brazil to Africa. The only problem is that it is quite expensive. There are however other options, such as a cruise ship that you may want to look into, but that would also be quite expensive I would think.

I’m sorry that I don’t have more information that I can give you to answer your question more thoroughly; hopefully this link will answer some of the doubts you have.
