Hi I am trying to transit China next year, my prefered route is Mongolia to Loas, there is another guy also interested in transiting China ( see early planners 2013 thread). I have looked and am looking for a 4x4 or similar to share the transiting China costs. It maybe is still a bit early but anyone reading this who is thinking of transisting China in a car/4x4 please get in touch. I have a realistic idea of China costs and am serious.

Thanks Jimmy
I think Mongolia to Laos will be the only way to cross China, i see June this year Tibet became a problem then at the end of July crossing Xinjiang province was also stopped so that just left basically Mongolia down.
Having a problem finding the thread, send me a link if you get chance, i also have many prices for the China part and a 4WD is the key to reduce costs.

Hi, if you search for early planners 2013 , you will find the thread.
I have been trying to transit China for three years, I am aware of costs but while I am quite happy to travel to Mongolian border.solo would prefer company for Mongolia and in view of costs also China.
Regards. Jimmy

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.
