A million thanks to Tanya, Igor, and Feodor (in Kiev.) My trip to Odessa went exceptionally well, in large measure due to the efficient, flexible, and above all hospitable services of the Unipress BTD. They handled changes of schedule at the last minute very smoothly and provided transfer drivers who were punctual and friendly. Friends of Unipress helped me every inch of the way, at the airports in Kiev and even at customs control. Remarkably, a nervous perfectionist such as I was able to relax. I cannot recommend Unipress too highly for visitors to Ukraine. The next time that I visit Odessa, I shall apply directly to my friends at Unipress.
