Hi Bergunt,
I'll travel from the UK to Turkey between 15th and 20th of June. We may meet somewhere on the road and have a dinner. Try to check: http://www.virtualtourist.com/ http://www.columbusguides.com/default.asp http://www.lonelyplanet.com/ for advices. Be sure that you got all your paperwork like insurance, green card, visas etc. You dont need visa for Bosnia and Croatia but for the rest you'll. I've spoken with their embassies and confirmed that Turkish people can enter Bosnia and Croatia and stay there up to 90 days without visa. As far as I red, there might be small possiblities for some threats in Bosnia and Sirbia and Montenegro, but I've never red a negative thing. So, I am not bothering about that. Btw, what is the bike you gonna ride? Good Luck and Have fun. ------------------ ride safely ozhan u. www.ozhanu.com |
In Bosnia, especially on the road Trebinje-Foca (near Montenegro border), sometime happen cases of carjacking.
Nevertheless, in general, the country is very safe and very beautiful. The advice is stay on main roads and ride during the day, but don't be paranoic. I rode my BMW GS all over the country without problems and I'm going to do the same this summer. |
Thank you for informations below.
I will ride with 1200GS. Which dates are you expecting to be in the area I mentioned? BURCIN. Quote:
