Principle:
There will be four no-extra-cost bus routes each day on three days when we are docked in Zaporozhye, along with private trips to outlying areas. Private trip costs will be paid to the trip providers on the ship in Ukraine. All bus and private trips are co-ordinated by Larissa Goryacheva, Manager of the privatized Intourist Travel Company in Zaporozhye. Larissa and her two senior guides will be with us on the ship from the start in Odessa.

Principle:
We can get you to any no-extra-cost cruise bus to any village in Molochna, Khortitsa or Yazykovo settlements. For a list see the page at:
There is an extensive library on online Mennonite maps by William Schroeder for you to see and download.
We can book a private trip to other places or for extended stays in one village - the costs will be $25 to $30 USD per hour and are often shared by other passengers interested in the same village. You will be paying the Intourist travel manager, Larissa Goryacheva, on the ship after each trip, preferably in US dollars. Larissa will be with us from the start of the cruise in Odessa. There will be packed lunches provided by the ship for bus and private tours.
