Would You Cross The Thailand Myanmar Border By Motorcycle? - RTW S5 EP13

DANGER: Thailand Myanmar Border 2026! Along the remote river border between Myanmar and Thailand, we discover an illegal crossing that still operates today. Boats silently move people across the river while armed security and checkpoints stand nearby. This is not a border tourists usually see and definitely not one you will find in any guidebook. In this episode, we explore what life looks like along the Thailand Myanmar border, why unofficial crossings exist, and how people still move between countries where official border posts are limited or closed. Riding our BMW R1300 GSA through northern Thailand, we follow the river, speak to locals, and witness first-hand how this border really works. This is motorcycle travel at the edges of Southeast Asia. No crossing involved, just observation, curiosity, and a closer look at a place few riders ever reach. 🛒 Our Travel Shop: Explore our travel-tested gear & stickers: https://seanandemilytravels.com/shop 🗺️ Navigation App – Calimoto: Get a 30-day free trial ➤ Use code: seanandemily30 Get 10% off yearly plans ➤ Use code: seanandemily10 Start here: https://linktr.ee/calimoto_SeanandEmily 🛟 Travel Safety – Protected by Global Rescue: Worldwide emergency rescue, evacuation, and medical support for overlanders: https://www.globalrescue.com/lp/sean-... 🚀 What’s Coming: We’re riding around the world on our BMW R1300 GSA — a 2-year global expedition across Europe, Asia, and beyond.
