Strannik

Strannik Ocean Voyages takes its name from the vessel MV Strannik, which all of our expeditions will be utilising. A Strannik is a wise traveller or pilgrim in search of wisdom and knowledge. Our expeditions will have similar objectives - a rewarding and responsible travel experience. The company is founded and owned by Rodney Russ who as a biologist, historian, author and adventurer has been involved in expedition travel since the early 1980(TM)s. The Expedition travel industry is undergoing significant change, ships are getting larger and larger effectively restricting where they can go, they are carrying increasing number of participants thereby limiting the time spent ashore and consequently the opportunities for the participants whatever they might be, birding, photography, botany, diving/snorkelling or cultural exchange.
