'Ferry Visitor to Rover' mission... how can I do this without EVA?

[ssjrhodry]

So I recently got a big mission - take 9 tourists to minmus to tour my minmus rover for 57 days each. The contract is worth 29mil so I took it (I only have around 1.5M atm so this is a huge step up), but if I fail they will take 9mil, which I don't even have lmao. 

Long story short, I landed a huge vessel on minmus right by my rover. However, I can't take the visitors into EVA, and from what I can tell, they need to physically enter the rover. How can this be done if they can't exit my ship, and I can't dock with the rover?

does your rover have a docking port?

No, I wasn't planning on using it for any such purpose. It was meant to be an unmanned vehicle just to get science from Minmus when the mission was offered to me.

then you need a claw and to claw it to ship carrying the tourist or vice versa

Hm, that sounds impossible with the current ship I'm using. I'm guessing I could put the claw on the rover and then drive it and clamp it on?

Yes, or you could build a Rover with a double claw, the claw then Rover first and afterwards  dock the rovers to your tourist ship

Makes sense... I guess now all I need to do is unlock the claw in research, lol. Also, do you know if life support will transfer if all the ships are docked? Because the rover was unmanned, it'll need life support somehow.
