Description
Hello, dear guest! Welcome to Kyiv and let`s start discovering its hidden gems together!
I can definitely convince you that Kyiv prepared a lot of spots to for you and sometimes its enough just to look down in order to see them. Better to make it with a real local so I will gladly accompany you during this trip.
Let`s take a brief look on what you will see:
- Golden Gates - they are not hidden and very famous but what do you know about the metro station named the same?
- Stay directly on the most ancient Kyiv basements.
- Why it`s so many murals on the city walls, who painted them and why.
- How to make money by being an owner of the fountain.
- Laughing chimera and mini-sculpture to the most recognised Ukrainian dish.
NB! If you are interested to visit or get to know about some particular places just let me know and I will show you them during the Tour or after.
Also after the Tour I am open to all your questions and will answer for sure where to buy local food, to try local dishes, to buy national souvenirs and questions like 'Oh, I wanna go to the Theatre and need some make up and haircut' and so on:)
