Join us for this amazing exploration of Western Ukaraine, a beautiful journey connecting with friendly people who will overwhelm you with their legendary hospitality. Let’s Enjoy Ukraine together as locals do!
Driving through the country and sightseeing on the way is the best way to see more sides of Ukraine from a local perspective – not only the most important sights, but also hidden, “undiscovered” breathtaking spots. Some of these hidden gems include Verhovyna in the Carpathians and the cozy city of Chernivtsi, which has been deeply influenced by Romanian, Austrian and Jewish cultures.
On this tour, you will find out what it was like to be a part of Ancient Kiev, the early medieval state that did so much to shape what later became the nation of Ukraine. You’ll also experience pleasant activities in the Carpathians and will be involved in learning about life and traditions of Hutsuls.
Don’t forget about the delicious Ukrainian cuisine that is also waiting for you!
Western Ukraine will surprise you in so many ways: the people are incredibly friendly, the architecture is colorful and majestic, and the castles are spectacular. We will show you not only historic churches, amazing landscapes, and brilliant buildings… You will explore the country as a local. And that is what makes it so memorable!

Other Practical InformationTour Type: Active - Walking tours in the cities, some of the cities are hilly or their historical center made of cobblestones. Some hikes, few elevations in the mountains, busy comfortable schedule and some long rides. Special notes: Some of the drives between cities and countries are long and many roads in Ukraine are not in good paved conditions (even though many of them are being repaired) and for a few of the driving days the tour will start quite early and end up quite late in the evening reaching the next destination, so patience is required for such long days. Lodging level: Hotels are 3-4 stars with additional amenities, English-speaking staff, service and comfort level acceptable to western standards. Please, check the list below.
