Hi Martin. In all the paperwork I filled in I'm entering Pakistan on 6 October and entering India 21 October. Want to spent some time in the northern mountain areas.

Still have to work on the paperwork and tour company for Myanmar. I know a Dutch guy who did this route last year. He used Bright view travel. I'll just have to start googling and reading on the hubb about the myanmar crossing I guess.

But first finish changing the clutch on my bike as well...

I'll sent you an email with my contact info. I'm Peter by the way.

Hi there

Looks like there are a few people with a similar idea (Me included).
I left Switzerland more than 3 Weeks ago. I hope to cross Myanmar sometime in November/December. Keep me updated. Hope to join some of you for some days.

As far as I know, in a 6-7 ppl group, price can fall around 1700 USD pp for some 2-3 weeks guided tour, included overnight and breakfast. I know a french guy expatriated in Yangoon who runs a travel agency and willing to help me organize one if required, who might make a quote as well. But there are two groups being organized, first one from Accel, which I commited, but I have no news from him since about two month. Anyone have some update?

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.
