CHORNOBYL TOUR
CHORNOBYL TOUR® unites companies and self-employed professionals proficient in the fields of Chornobyl accident, ecology and tourism. The project goal is to liquidate an "information contamination” in the society as a result of the ChNPP accident; to organize lectures and trainings for both novices and professionals right on the spot of the accident; to teach radiation and survival skills in condition of anthropogenic catastrophes.
Since its foundation in 2008, CHORNOBYL TOUR® (a licensed tour operator, the order of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine #532, DP UIPV certificates #143234, #193542) has become a brand which embodies quality and professionalism, attentive client service, and easy-to-get information presentation.
An accurate, interesting and safe presentation of the Chornobyl accident is challenging indeed. In particular, it needs special equipment, solid knowledge of local radiation situation, and a vast expertise in the issues of radiation, atomic energy, medicine, history and other relevant fields. We offer substantial experience in telling the Chornobyl story in a competent and visitor-friendly way.
In our trips you will learn the facts about the Chornobyl catastrophe and about other radiation catastrophes and accidents. Moreover, these facts will be correctly interpreted for you by experts, and you will learn about the real effects of radiation and the disaster.
For your trip you can rent an individual dosimeter to carry with you. This accurate, precise, reliable and convenient instrument will provide you with an on-going reading of radiation level and dose, will give an immediate feeling of an invisible radioactive landscape, in which you will be traveling, and warn you about the increase of radiation. The device will become one more organ of your senses, and you will develop a specific 'feeling of radiation environment', the one you can get only in the Chornobyl Zone.
We will also provide you with a map of the area and a scheme of the trip. It will help you to find a way in the avalanche of your impressions, store them in your mind, and eventually form an integral picture of the contemporary Zone and the catastrophe. For years to come, these map and scheme will remind you about your trip to the Chornobyl Zone, and help you relate your experiences from the Chornobyl zone to your dearest and nearest.
The trips, the topics and content are developed by Sergii Mirnyi, a radiation surveillance officer, an active participant in the accident's mitigation in the Zone in 1986, and a well-known expert in Chornobyl and radiation environmental catastrophes. He is also regarded as a pro Chornobyl storyteller: his screenplay and documentary novel obtained awards at prestigious competitions.
By the end of the trip, many of your questions will have been answered, and you will have ample photos and memories to share as you take the story and experience of Chornobyl with you.
