Individual tour of Kiev - It's all very cheerful, no boring. Jana told me without interruption. With humor, in a free manner. Good choice of places, I think. It was a little stressful not having air conditioning on this hot day) good balance of walking and automobile. It feels like a person knows an object and loves it!

Thank you guys - fell in love with Kiev - Visited a sightseeing individual tour of Kiev with Mikhail. It went more than fine. Mikhail was so passionate about sharing knowledge and information with us, you can see that a man is living it. A very nice impression of himself and the city. Also thanks to driver Gennady for the comfortable ride and, of course, Igor for quickly organizing all this. We will certainly continue to get acquainted with the capital and, of course, with this team of great professionals.

The kid had a lot of fun, so we'll wait for the next field trip. Good luck guide. - Took their rubber boots for the child, as a advice for those who go with the children, much more comfortable to walk in puddles))
