Amazing Kiev
5 - Excellent
“Kiev is a city like no other. It's history, caught between Russia and Europe, is fascinating and gives its memorials and statues real interest. The churches and monasteries have colourful gilded domes and the architecture is elegant and varied in a lush green setting. Even the metro, deep below the streets, has splendid chandeliers and mosaics. But, for a European, it can be hard to work out how to put together an itinerary. Most of us can't read or speak the language. It's not a common tourist destination, and whatever your interests, it rewards those who dig beneath the surface to find its hidden gems. This is where the guidance of a local is just invaluable. I can wholeheartedly recommend asking someone who's grown up there where to go and how best to plan the day.”
Awesome time exploring Ukraine
5 - Excellent
“I had an awesome time exploring Ukraine with my girlfriend in Sep 2017. UCT's recommendation on sights and activities to go/eat/do were easily the highlights of this trip - with detailed descriptions of each and a map to follow! They have strong local knowledge across multiple Ukrainian cities and were able to tailor the advice depending on our interests. Some of the highlights were the afternoon boat trip in Odessa and Lviv's underground restaurant/bar that requires a secret password/chant to get in! Thank you local travel specialist!”
Excellent trip

“This is a fantastic trip which packs a lot into a week and visits two lesser known but fascinating countries. The itinerary works well, and you are kept busy without being too rushed. The group I travelled with were a pleasure to be with and we had a great time. Our tour leader was excellent. The hotels and transport were a very high standard. I couldn't have asked for a better holiday.”
