Shipping motorbike from Indonesia to the Philippines
Hi guys
I'm currently touring se-asia on my BMW 650 Dakar. I'm in Thailand right now. My plan is to go until the Philippines. I intend to arrive there coming may. Does anyone has experiences with shipping a motorbike from Indonesia to the Philippines? I haven't found any information yet about a ferry connecting those two countries. I'd like to cross by ship/vessel. Probably the best options are from Sulawesi what I found out so far. I need to arrive in Cebu-City due to the fact that you have to leave the country at the same port where you entered the country (if this information is correct). Cebu-City has an international airport and I intend to fly back to Switzerland from there.
So is there any possibilty to cross the sea by ship or will I really have to take an airplane from Jakarta to Manila? I hope not...
Another big question is the handling of the customs. Has anyone been recently there and has reliable informations about the customs in the Philippines? I read different older stories and evey single one sounds different. So what is the status nowadays?
Any information is highly appreciated. Thanks a lot. Ride safe and enjoy your trips, where ever you are at the moment...
Cheers
Thierry
