Is it possible to go overland from central America to South America? |
Travel Info time and comfort do not matter much, I'm just trying to cut down on costs and I figure it will be a lot cheaper than going by plane. Thanks! Travel Tips Yes it is. Start in Eagle Pass, TX. Cross the bridge and continue on Hwy. 57. Known as the Pan American Highway. You're nuts if you do it alone! And make sure your vehicle looks like crap, can run on just about any fuel, and has 4 wheel drive! From the Panama Canal to ? is not known if the road is still passable. Source(s): Personal Experience from Eagle Pass to Ushuia, Argentina! Other Travel Tips i don't see why not..though the panama canal might be a little tricky if there's no bridge. :P it is possible the only water you have cross is the panama chanel. I think the cheaper way is hichiking but if you love your kidneys maybe you should check train and bus options. Yes its possible, in fact I have met a lot of people who have done it. If your interested in what it might be like read Paul Therouxs "Patagonia Express" where he travels from Boston to southern Argentina by train..... ferries. Also check kayak.com in case you can find a good plane deal. buena suerte y disfruta. te va a encantar suramerica y centroamerica. Yes it is, but get yourself a copy of the South America Handbook by Footprint before you do. Invaluable. You can get as far south as Yaviza by road. From there it, most of it is by foot or small boat until you get to the Colombian border. By the way, about the Colombian border. It is THE MOST DANGEROUS PLACE in the whole hemisphere, with drug dealers, para-militaries and revolutionaries who take turns kidnapping people, when they aren't shooting people for the fun of it. Save yourself a world of hassle and fly from Panama City to Ecuador. |
