While it may be tempting to drive the vehicle the distance from the US to Peru, it is simply not possible because there is no road connecting Columbia to Panama, so even if you choose to drive most of the way, the car must still be put on a boat at some point during the trip. The Darrien Gap has been crossed by foot for a select number of people, but it is EXTREMELY dangerous because of the presence of rebels. It is for this reason alone that a shipping company like A-1 Auto Transport is indispensable in this particular scenario.
