The costs are about 1050 USD for 4 people (must be confirmed again, because prices will rise up in 2015 but we probably get the old price) and will significantly go down with an increasing number of participants.

Hi Steven,

We are 2 pairs of brothers traveling in a Toyota Hiace on our way to doing the same as you. The dates and price range fit pretty well!

Could you send us a private message with more detail about the agency involved? That would be great.

Cheers,

Doug, Yann, Henry and Gino.

New travel partners!
 

Hi there Doug and your team!

I'm the other car that Steven was referring to when he mentioned 2 cars with 4 people. Good to meet you.

I have just emailed the company to try and confirm the itinerary and final price and will let you know what's involved.

At this stage we're looking to depart from Thailand around the 10th April, taking 9 days to cross the country before entering India's north-west.

If you email me at bensout@gmail.com we can chat there along with Steven.

Hopefully this all works out!

Have fun and hope to meet you soon,

Ben
