Visas Required

We’ll be sending you a detailed Visa Packet with instructions, application forms, and fees
about 100 days prior to your departure. In the meantime, we’re providing the information
below as a guideline on what to expect. This info is for U.S. citizens only. All visas and fees are
subject to change.

• Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania—no visas needed: U.S. citizens do not need visas for stays of
less than 90 days in any of these countries

• Russia (main trip and optional extension)— visa required. Can only be obtained in
