Buenos Aires... I know that Malaysian Airlines flies twice a week from BA to Capetown... I'm sure if you do some searching here you'll find some sources. Santiago is on the other side of the continent and shipping from there will likely be more expensive or take longer... or both.
good luck

Ozhanu, if you click on the link above it'll take you to the shipping page. Under "country to country" just enter Argentina to South Africa. I tried to post the exact link but couldn't, I'm terrible with this computer stuff. Perhaps someone else might do it. Again, good luck. H.

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.
