Vladivostok to Chile in August 2013
Hi all.
We are two Spanish travelers, we have to travel from Spain to Vladivostok in the summer of 2012.
We are looking for a transport to Vladivostok Santigo de Chile.
The shipping is two BMW R1200GS motorcycles. The shipping date would be 20 to 25 August.
I have read in the forum that is best done from South Korea, there would not be problems if necessary move.
*
Anybody know any agent that we can make this transport?
thank you very much

Hello,
I am also from Spain and I also will be around Vlad at the end of August. My plan is to jump to Vancouver though, not South America. For what I know, yes this should be done through South Corea. You can get quotes and information from several sources, look around in the forum... but contacting Wendy Choi in Corea should be a good start (her email address is all over this forum). There is also, Yuri Melnikov in Vladivostok (look for his address, I don't have it with me). I am planning to contact DHL and others too, hoping to get a few different quotations before deciding. Wendy said sea would be 1500USD more or less and air would be 5000USD more or less.
Good luck!
Hola!
Yo también soy español y estaré (si todo va bien) en Vladivostok a finales de agosto. Mi plan es saltar a Vancouver, no a Sudamérica. Por lo que llevo investigado, desde Vladivostok no hay muchas opciones por aire, aparte de San Francisco, Seatle y Los Angeles. Para todo lo demás... mastercard y pasar por Corea del Sur. Yo estoy pidiendo información y presupuestos ya. Por lo visto, Wendy Choi (Corea del Sur) es una agente que mucha gente utiliza en este foro. Aunque algunos dicen que es genial y otros dicen que no han tenido buen trato con ella por correo. A mi de momento me contesta rápido y bien... También está Yuri Melnikov en Vladivostok (buscad su dirección, que no la tengo a mano). Estoy pensando en contactar a DHL y a otras compañías también, para tener diferentes presupuestos antes de decidir. Wendy me ha dado unas aproximaciones, 1500 dólares por barco (15 o 20 días de travesía) o unos 5000 dólares por avión (incluyendo un montón de servicios de los que puede que sea posible recortar alguno).
Buena suerte!
