Ask to be the "receiving agent"

We used this company in November of 2007 . They were very nice and accomadating.

However, the agents they forced us to use in Bogota tried to make us pay for a truck to haul to the bikes to a warehouse and also made us provide a carnet or libreta before they would go to customs with our papers.

The only way I would use them again would be if they made me the agent in Bogota, so that I could retieve my moto from air cargo without using an agent there.

We shipped 5 motos. Cost US$550 to US$650 each before the "extras" that popped up in Bogota.

The cheapest option is to go to the backpacker hostels and ask for ships that take bikes.

I used Stahlratte (google it) and it was very good. 250$ for the bike and 300$ for me

Mind you, these are sailboats so it will be an adventure to get the bike onboard the boat.

If you have a big/expensive bike, then I would fly it since it is not too expensive (550$ for the bike and 200$ for you) and extremely safe, fast, easy and reliable.

If you look at "shipping the bike" in the sidebar to the left you can see other peoples experiences and phone number for air shipping.

The cheapest air freight company should be Girag (or something)
