Myanmar and Thailand from India to Laos Dec 2018
Hello,
We are Polish couple traveling on two bikes and planning to cross Myanmar and Thailand in early December 2018. We would like to form a group to share costs.

Entry point Morei in India
Exit point Mae Sot in Thailand
Exit point Ban Houayxay in Laos

Trip duration 10-14 days

If anyone interested, let us know.

Cheers,
Lukasz & Marta

Hi! You managed December 2018 in your post. It isn't mistake? Because if you mean December 2017, you can join our group. We will start at December 8, crossing Myanmar, and then 4 people go to Malaysia, and me to Laos.

Hi,
No that is not a mistake. We are going there in 2018. I know it's still early but it might help some people to arrange plans for next year. I would appreciate if you could share info about the company you used, costs, etc.

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.
