Excellent tour and good experience - It was my first time in Kiev and my friend suggested this company to arrange sightseeing and activities. Actually I got 3 hours tour around downtown, guide Anna was very friendly, showed me joy only historical sides but also gave lots of suggestions where to grab a coffee and food. Anna was a great company for me so I went with her also for a nightlife tour. Excellent experience! Thank you!

Katya's Kiev - I contacted Katya without a precedent plan to simply just walk around and experience the city for 3 hours. Little had I known that the 3 hours had turned into 6 hours and I had seen and learned a lot more than I expected in the company of Katya who showed genuine joy and pleasure throughout the guide. In fact, she had answers and fun facts for every statue in Kiev. She was even kind enough to provide me many outstanding recommendations (dining, nightlife, and souvenirs) and organized my Chernobyl tour through her colleagues. In summary, Kiev without Katya is incomplete. PS. ask her to show you the "Hello USSR" building!

Kiev tours - Katya and her company provide excellent tours in Kiev. She also is excellent at organizing airport pick up, apartment rental and has a great overall city knowledge. We visited many places: the war museum, the ex presidents mansion, the city beach frontage walk and carting. Katya and her other tour guides will organize a memorable experience. I highly recommend their services. Also ask about more active tours like carting, quad riding, shooting ranges, x park and professional massage facilities.

Some Hidden Treasures with Katya - Did some night strolling with Katya which changed our view on Kyiv. She showed us some hidden pearls we would never had found without a local. Wasn't anything I would expect from either a tour or the city. She's easygoing and relaxed with a great knowledge of the city. She knew what we would like before we knew it ourselves. Be aware tho, she will make you tipsy ;)
