argentina insurance online
has anyone been able to purchase insurance online for argentina? I have tried atmseguros.com.ar without much luck. it seems more suited to locals than foreigners. i have read about buying in buenas aires but we are travelling overland and i think you need it before arriving at the border.

Where are you crossing from ?
You can buy it in Chile at many places.

Great, thanks! I'll stop worrying about it. Most things in Latin America seem to work themselves out eventually.

Indeed they do, remember the locals crossing into Argentina need to buy it as well :-)
Some borders (Los Altos, Chile) have booths selling it. Otherwise stop at a nearby town and look for a Rilpley store, they often sell it.
Ask around, there is always someone some where who can guide you.
If crossing from Bolivia to Argentina you may need to leave the vehicle at the border and get a taxi to the nearest town in Argentina to purchase the insurance.

We get ours through Klaus
info@abgefahren.info
who sorts out mandatory insurance for a lot of overlanders. All done via email and bank transfer of paypal. Covers all the southern countries Brazil around to Chile but not Peru.
Not the cheapest but you get off the boat insured.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
