SA from late 2018 for 6 months+
 

Partner and I are putting our bikes on a plane and heading to Santiago in November this year. At the moment we don't have a time limit apart from possible visa/TIP limitations. Brazil is the only place we need a visa, most of the countries we have 90 days.

We are planning on heading south through Chile and Argentina to arrive in Ushuaia December/January.
From Ushuaia, we will head north in Argentina to Bolivia, Peru and Equador, possibly Columbia.

We are aiming to camp as much as possible, we know hostels are cheap, but we are hoping to camp, unless the weather is really crap.

In regard to the TIP's for our bikes, if we are in Chile for close to 90 days, leave and enter Argentina, how long till we can re enter Chile and get another 90 day TIP?
Same with personal entry, we have 90 days from entry, can we leave for a few days/weeks, come back to Chile and 90 days starts again?

Chile Visa
 

You get 90 days every time you enter. Even when you cross in the south on your way to Ushuaia, you get 3mo to go 155kms.

Thanks for the reply.
Found this site which gives good details on all countries.

S America
 

Hi guys planning to be there around that time me and I've same bike starting Alaska Early August heading south . Keep in touch maybe meet up for a few beers.

Sorry small keyboard (me and wife).

Awesome, we'll be plodding about on a couple of KTM 690's with Australian plates.

Patagonia winds!
 

From what I have read the winds around Patagonia down to Tierra Del Fuego and Ushuaia get pretty nasty around summer time.
When is best time to be in that area?

Brilliant! I have sent you an email overloaded with questions. lol

Hey!

Doing the same route, starting November 1. I start in Peru and also planing to reach Ushuaia in late December/January. I would be very grateful if you could share some of those Questions and Answers:))

Maybe we will see each other on the road also! :)

So once we leave Santiago we are planning on going to check out Valparaiso. After that we are heading south toward Caraterra Austral.
What are some places we should visit on our way from Valparaiso heading south?
