Malaysia to Japan?

Hi, I'm in Thailand at the moment and my trips taking a bit of a change. Has anyone ever shipped from this part of the world to Japan and can anyone give me info on the RoRo from Japan to Vladivostok?

Cheers Fish.

Hi there "fish"

Maybe you want to check this here:

Ferries To / From Japan:
</B>From July to October a ferry runs twice a week to Fushiki, near Toyama. Prices go from $230 US (including meals) and higher for the forty-plus hour trip outside the cabin on the deck ($330 US return). Cabins start at $530 US one way and $804 US return. The passengers will be almost exclusively Russian men importing Japanese cars. Go to the ferry terminal, third floor. Alternatively, book tickets online at
www.bisintour.com, or call (4232) 49-73-91, 49-73-93, 30-01-4.
In Fushiki phone: +81 (0766) 222-212; E-mail: fkk-air@toyama-net.com.


or this:

The FESCO company runs ferries from Vladivostok Saturdays at 18:00 (6pm), arriving in Fushiki on Mondays at 9:00am. It returns on Wednesdays at 18:00, arriving on Friday at 9:30 am in Vladivostok. [Warning: the Fesco page seems to only work well with Internet Explorer.]
The fare is about ¥28,000 cheapest to ¥88,000 for the most expensive. I don't have any more detailed information at this time. The same company reportedly runs another ferry from Vladivostok to Niigata city.

Hope it will help you. If there is anything else I can help you with, please get with me also at: Klausdorth(at)web.de!

Safe riding!!

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.
