Kyrgistan -China- Pakistan: August 18
 

We are a group of 3 (2 Swedish bikes + 1 sidecar) , crossing Chinese border in mid August 18. We have already contacts with guides. Anyone interested to join?
PS: There is a similar thread for September, but this is too late for us.
Cheers
Marc

I might be interested, depending on the route. I want to do the KKH to India and proceed from there to do as little of Chinese roads as possible.

I'm driving to Australia from Amsterdam next year on my bike. I'm still not sure about dates though.

I'm heading in that direction as well - not sure yet about exact route and timing though but would like to stay in the loop!

France to Malaysia via China.
 

Hello, I'm planning to ride a bike from France to Malaysia. You plan looks good with me. I'm happy to join. Do you have the quotation with you? how much it will cost now? from where you will be starting your journey?

Just to follow the "August Group" and to stay in contact ;)
For September our Idea is the 3rd or the 10. for boarder crossing.

Sharing costs?

Hi

My name is Gerry and my wife and I are diving a Land Rover camper through the Stans in the summer. You can see our truck etc on the Celtic Rover website

I am interested to cross from Kyrgyzstan or Tajikistan in August to Pakistan KKH or all the way down to the freedom highway in Nepal

I would like to stay in touch in case we can form a group.

There is also a facebook group called China Transit 2018 which may be useful

Cheers

Hello,

My name is Samuel, from Spain but living in Germany. I'll be happy to join you. I am starting in Greece (in April), and heading to South-East-Asia/Oceania. My plan would be also to cross China from Kyrguistan, to Pakistan and Nepal after that.

What is your route? How much would it cost?any other information you could provide is always welcome. (Either on this post or just send me a PM)

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

China Crossing Aug 2018
 

Hi Folks,

Do you have a target date in mind for the crossing to China, my planning has moved forward and I am really interested in crossing mid August there is a facebook group in overland sphere "china crossing 2018" with lots of good quotes from different tour companies, but most of that group seems to be targeting early Sept which is too late for me. Perhaps if we all joined there and swapped information we could organise an early group and a late group and get some decent discount for both

I was hoping for the 13th/14th but can flex, one tip I have heard is that you need to take care about weekends and national holidays as some of the borderss are closed (did not check these specific ones yet)

Thoughts ?

Gerry

Update dates
 

Hi all,
The group is already formed for 4 bikes. The date to enter China is already set: August 14/15 and cannot be changed. If you are seriously interested please PM me and I will send you the details with quote.
Cheers, Marc

Confirm serious interest
 

Hi Marc I sent you a pm - hopefully you got it, I am seriously interested and have a Land Rover which may help with guide costs and can meet your fixed dates.

Gerry

Thanks in advanced

Update on Plans
 

Hi Folks I have tried to contact the organiser of this thread but no reply so far, it appears he is a Scandinavian tour operator, anyway I have a quote now from Navo tours for the crossing around 1500 Euro for each car with two passengers and for the 13/14 of Aug and we have a few interested folks.

Christian you mailed me through my website but your email is not accepting my replys you must be set to only accept know email addresses, if you pm me on here we can exchange contact information.

Anyone else, including the original organiser please keep in touch as it makes a big difference if we have a bigger group of people.

Regards

Gerry

I'm still interested but haven't decided yet between this group in August and the one in September.

Anyway. Since motorcycles are banned from highways in China (lol), will you allow motorcycles to join the group?

[Hi André

Cheers

Hello Samuel,
My name is Pietro, I am interested over your journey plan. Can you please expand on your plan...starting from Greece?
Thanks and kind regards,
Pietro

Hi Gerry
I have sent you a message through PM. Perhaps it didn't work. Please send me your mail address, and I will send you the details.
Crossing is confirmed on Aug 13th with 4 or 5 bikes. You are welcome to join.
Cheers

Hi Pietro

Hello Pietro,

I am going to Greece in February and I’ll stay there until end of March. After that I’ll cross Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Iran to reach the Stans. Starting in Turkmenistan I’ll go to Uzbekistan and Tajikistan (Pamir) and to Kyrgyzstan, once in Osh and depending on the time (China crossing starting on August 13th) I’ll go to Tashkent and Bishkek or directly to Bishkek.

After China, Pakistan and Nepal, I may have to leave the motorcycle in Nepal for a week at the end of September (still not sure), and my intention is to be on the Myanmar border by mid-October. To cross Myanmar and Thailand you need (as for China) an agency/guide. After that, in Laos I’ll head south to Cambodia and Malaysia (2nd Thailand crossing) and finally to Indonesia. If everything goes as planned, I’ll be there around Dec’18-Jan’19. Time to fly back to Germany.

This is a bit off topic for this thread, if you want more information; I think it would be better if you send me a pm.

Cheers
Samuel

Following
 

We're anticipating crossing Kyrg to China down to KKH end of Aug/start Sep. Gonna find the China Sep thread but will watch this one too. Thanks, the info is all helpful.

Hello all,

I don’t know how many of you would be interested, if any. After China I intend to cross Myanmar and Thailand, starting mid-October. I started a thread for this, as it is also needed to have a guide in both countries.

Hey there!

We are a couple from Spain with one motorbike, and we want to cross China from Kirghistan to Pakistan (the Karakorum Highway). We are not sure yet about the dates but July/August could be good for us, so maybe we can join!!

I have some questions... how are you doing with the Chinese Visa?! because they said to me that it is impossible to enter with our own motorbike, and that we should contact the China's External Affairs Ministry for a special request... and how much is it going to cost?

Keep in touch!!!!
