Bus between Mir and Nesvizh edit

Hi, back in August 2019, you added that there's a bus between Mir and Nesvizh. When I visited Belarus in February 2019, I asked hotel staff to look up the bus connection between Mir and Nesvizh, only to be told there is none. Can you show me which website displays the bus timetable between Mir and Nesvizh? OhanaUnitedTalk page 16:43, 21 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi, the bus definitely exists because I took it! I can't remember if I found out about it though the Minsk bus station website or simply on a travellers' forum. Bear with me as I'm very busy at the moment, tomorrow I'll try to do some research and get back to you. FTMDave (talk)

Hi again, the site is http://ticketbus.by/ I remember taking for ages & ages to look up the cyrillic versions of the towns to do searches, and even then it's not as easy as doing a search from Не́свиж to Мир. Oh no! You have to know where the bus in question originally starts from and where it terminates. As I say - it took me ages to find the info.

If it's easier I can direct you to a TripAdvisor forum thread where someone who had done the journey described the logistics, I later added my own experience as did travellers who did the journey after me. FTMDave (talk)

Yes, that will be appreciated. I wondered when you went there, since it's possible that the service was withdrawn after you took it. (Or maybe it's a seasonal route?) OhanaUnitedTalk page 05:51, 30 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi again. I think there are two possibilities. (1) The service was relatively new when I took it, in a context where there had never been public transport between the two castles, indeed the Belarus experts on TripAdvisor who had written thousands of posts all assumed there was no transport, so your hotel may simply not have heard of it. (2) Or as you say it may since have been withdrawn or been a seasonal service. I remember that it was a long-distance bus, continuing to Brest or Grodno, so its main focus was not to connect Nesvizh and Mir. Anyway, have a look at https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowTopic-g294448-i5626-k11464935-Day_trip_to_Nesvizh_and_Mir_by_public_transport-Minsk.html The thread is long but the important posts are the OP's, 17, 18 (mine), 26 & 34.

Thanks. I added the bus info. Unfortunately I didn't get to go to Mir that time so I can't add more info to it. OhanaUnitedTalk page 04:03, 12 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
