Shipping from the UK to Irkutsk or Ulan Bator

I am looking to ship my bike from the UK to Ulan Bator in May next year however i am starting to think that Irkutsk might be a good option due to the trans Siberian railway.
So far i have one quote of £2650 for air freight London (UK) into Ulaan bator (Mongolia).
Does anyone have any advice to offer ?
Was hoping that a cheaper land/rail option would be possible !

We transported our 2 motorbikes from Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan) to our house in London for considerably less than that!


Not sure about Irkutsk as dropping place but check with www.advfactory .com.


Chris and Ola are super friendly and they will help if they can.

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.
