Selected from the best - The food was outstanding and the tasting experience was enhanced by incredible places you had them in. It begs the question why Lviv is not #1 destination in europe for foodies.

Excellent tour - We stopped by the Tourist Information Center in the city town hall, and stumbled upon the food tour with Ohla. We went to 3 stops for the tour, and these are all restaurants that are very popular with the locals. One restaurant is at the roof top, and another one is in the same building as the glass museum, and we had many interesting dishes and Ohla patiently explained to us what the dishes are. Our personal favorite is the onion pie in the restaurant by the glass museum. Then we went to a cafe for some delicious honey cake and coffee to top off the evening. But that's not the end of it, we told Ohla we would be heading to Kiev the next day, and she sent us a list of her personal favorites in Kiev. Her recommendations are spot on, and we had the best Chicken Kiev, and also went to a fusion restaurant that's very popular with the locals. We wouldn't be able to find these places by doing the research on our own. Thanks to Ohla we have the most unforgettable dining experiences for our Ukrainian holidays.

Delightful food tour - We spent a wonderful afternoon with Olha learning about Ukrainian cuisine and history all while sampling delicious food. We were especially pleased that the tour was organized to include our two little dogs since we couldn't leave them alone during our stay in Lviv. Highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in an introduction to restaurants that are not on the tourist trail.

Communist Style Food Tour - I was in Lviv for a couple of days on my summer holiday and wanted to explore more Soviet history. I came across this food tour and it was one of the most unique experiences I've ever had. My guide Ksenia was extremely friendly, talkative and highly knowledgable. She explained the story behind each restaurant/canteen and food they served in each place. It was an experiement tasting many different cuisine no matter how basic some looked but the bonus was we got on very well and made a friend after the tour. Would certainly recommend this if you're a huge food lover and into communist history at the same time.

Galician Cuisine Gourmet Tour - The first reason to book this tour was me and my wife's being a big time foodies. The tour is going to take you through the well known restaurants and hidden gems of the city where it's not easy to spot unless you are a local. So not only the food but also the places you will be in are also special. Plus you will hear the history of Ukraine. Our lovely guide Imma was very knowledgeable and keen on cooking as well. We had a great time and can't wait to see them im some other great stuff. Thank you.
