Being lazy, and needing a quick fix to see if its possible. Particular intrest in the middle east and a decent / safe routes for 2 -3 bikes.

Burma's been closed for a couple of decades or so. Although there is some fiant hope recently that they have begun starting to normalize relations with the rest of the world.

Hey look, it´s the weekly "can I go to Burma" thread...

Probably less than 5 succesful trips thru the whole country reported in the past decade. They seriously don´t want you there with your vehicle. Plus you´d have problems to even get near the border in India, as those are sensitive areas. So the simple answer is still no, just like a week ago.

Hi,

Did you manage to get into and through Burma on a motorbike?
If so, how was it done?

Thanks
