India - Myanmar - China - Thailand

Hi,
we are currently staying in Delhi. We are planning to go through Myanmar and China to Thailand. It is possible with a guide now. It involves a lot of paperwork (visa, inner-line permit, bookings)and of course money. Therefore we are seeking fellow travellers who want to join us on this exciting and unique trip. We plan to start the trip beginning of January 2004. Details can be given in private email.

myanmar

Hi, I just saw your thread from 2004! It is now 2009, but we are planning a trip in 2012 from Cape Town up through Africa, then east through India, Myanmar, Thailand ending in Singapore. I am interested to hear how the Myanman section went, ie can one get across the country, and also the rest of the trip to Thailand.
Love to hear from you if you still read the HUBB

You can't ride through Myanmar as far as I'm aware, at least not when I was travelling last year.

For Vietnam, I'm pretty sure you are restricted to only bringing in bikes of a maximum 175cc too.

I'm guessing it was just wishful thinking by the original poster - I've been trying to get a bike into Burma for the last 35 years to no avail, although I have heard stories of people apparently transiting through the north eastern part of Myanmar along grey (disputed) border areas.

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.
