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!

I have spent one evening with Anna and it was enjoying experience. She's dinamic, gentle, open mind, nice and clever, you can speak whit her about everything and knows a lot of things. Funny and pleasant)
A very amiable & knowledgeable tour guide who was open to think on her feet and accommodate our times to maximize our time in Kyiv
