A must do in Kyiv

By far one of the best decisions I made in Kyiv, was to have a tour with Alina. The unique knowledge that you will gain about the city of Kyiv and the hidden gems within it makes her tour absolutely worth every penny.

She is also a very pleasant, kind and intelligent girl, to the point that you forget that you are actually on a tour - she has that natural ability to make you feel welcome, and that you are in the company of a friend exploring the beautiful city of Kyiv.

Highly recommended to all!

Alina is awesome

It’s not like a tour, but like meeting a friend in Kyiv who knows every little story behind buildings, monuments and murals, and who doesn’t rush to follow a schedule. We saw interesting street art, heard lots of stories of corrupted politicians (surprise!) and were impressed with the density of backyard bars, cafes and other establishments. Alina is sweet, thoughtful and flexible in any situation – even if it involves a 8,5mo baby :) and great tips for other things to see and do, including bars.

I couldn't more highly recommend Anna! She does a great job of making you feel at home in Kyiv and like you're a good friend of hers that she's showing around. Her recommendations are also stellar and she does a great job of tailoring them to your preferences -- I met Anna on my 6th day in Kyiv and she still found great places to take me to that I hadn't visited before. She also selected new locations to go as she learned more about me and my interests while we talked, which really showed how much she cares about providing a great experience. If you're in Kyiv, you should not hesitate to book a tour with Anna -- you will without a doubt be glad you did!

Unique Experience

A driver picked us up at our apartment and took us to Тетяна's apartment. There she told us the history of the pysanka egg painting, based on covering the egg with wax and then immersing it on different colorants. She showed us how to do it and then we could choose a pattern that the we would like to reproduce by ourselves. We had so much fun getting to paint the eggs in that old Ukrainian technique and we were proud of the result. This workshop was one of the highlights of our trip to Kiev and we recommend it to everyone trying to experience a real Ukrainian tradition.

Its easy to fall in love with Kyiv with such a fun and witty guide

I had a wonderful time on the tour with Alina, she is well informed and give you interesting and fun facts about the city and its history. She made me so comfortable it was like taking a walk with a friend, while telling me about her people and culture. Because of her I discovered many places I would have never found on my own and wouldn´t have the background facts /story behind it. I can recommend Alina and her tour to everyone, you will have a lovely time and learn a lot about Ukraine and Kyiev, don´t miss your chance to get a true experience.

Fun, Food, and Surprises!

We had a great time with Olga as our guide! Without ruining any surprises,(and there were some fun surprises), she took us to places that we would never had gone to, had we been on our own. Don’t think that you are taken to the same spots that crowds of tourists frequent, because you’re not! I found myself anticipating...can it get better than the last one? And it did! The food was excellent and plentiful at each location. This is a must-do tour if you visit Kiev!

Alina is a passionate and extremely welcoming guide. Her knowledge of the history of Kyiv together with contemporary aspects of the city meant that we got a complete perspective. We loved Alina surpring us with hidden gems of Kyiv in places we’d never expect them or be able to find ourselves. Alina also takes the time to ensure we had a great experience. We highly recommend Alina and this tour.

Flexible, communicative, friendly and knowledgeable

I recently used Alina as a guide recently in Kiev. I had limited time split over 2 days - she was flexible and worked with me on a great schedule. She is very friendly and caring, and is available anytime to answer questions.

Her knowledge for off-beat and hidden treasures of Kiev is commendable as well - I would highly recommend her.

Fun artistic adventure.

My daughter found this online and we decided to try it since it was Easter Week during our vacation to Kiev. Very skeptical when arriving at the apartment. After two minutes we were very comfortable and learned a bit of this amazing art. Very informative and interactive. Kids and adults loved it. The drivers were also amazing.

Awesome Kyiv tours

I visited a couple of walking tours with Alina. It was a great chance for me to meet new friends from different countries and also to practice my English. It's always fun and different - we end up going to some bar or even to karaoke sometimes. Totally recommend!

Necessary!

A lot of what happens in Kyiv happens in courtyards or backyards away from the main streets. You simply won’t find them without help. This tour is invaluable in order to really see the city. My guide Alina was charming and insightful, and enriched my visit.

Champions League Finale

We did the Kyiv backyards walking tour with Alina and had a very interesting and relaxing time. Alina was enthusiastically giving us an insight in Kiew life now and back in the old days, knowing lots of interesting details. We had a wonderful time!!
