Um, other than suggesting you have a look at their website, what can we say? What exactly do you want to know?

To the best of our knowledge, they're very reputable people who lead an excellent tour. You shouldn't have any trouble going with them. And you can tell them I said so!

Thumbs up Yo, Precherman

They seem to be REAL people. I met the couple in Germany at the BMW Rally this summer. I offered to guide for them in the US (HEH,HEH). Seemed to be regular people. Their website reports seemed to be accurate about the places I have been before. Give 'em a call.

Good Luck
Curtis

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.
