5.00Thanks to our Tour Guide Konstantyn we had an amazing experience.He went above and beyond.For example when he discovered that we wanted to feed the Dogs.He purchased some anti bacterial wipes for us and took us to a shop to purchase food for them.He made it so personal , which made the entire experience memorable.I loved the fact that he showed us images of the Town before nature took over as that gave us a real insight .His wealth of knowledge further enhanced the experience.

5.00One of the best experiences we ever had! We booked this tour for 2 persons. Our guide, Maxim, was very helpfull, friendly and knows the place inside and out! He gave us a lot of information and arranged the tour in a different way, so we didn't see a lot of other tourists. (It's a popular location, and about 200-1500 tourists come here every day). Pickup at the hotel in a nice, clean car. All english tour, no trouble communicating. An amazing experience!

5.00We were a private group of four - two couples, very experienced travelers, but our tour with Konstantin to Chernobyl was one of the best and most memorable we’ve done anywhere in the world. Konstantin is very knowledgeable, could not only explain everything that we saw with great insight but also guided us to areas of the zone where we encountered few other visitors. To add to the solemnity of the site, the day we visited the weather was pretty grim ending with a massive thunderstorm. Nobody visiting Ukraine should miss Chernobyl
Amazing trip and excellent guide!

5.00Had an amazing trip with our amazing guide. Would highly recommend booking through this company. Thoroughly interesting, whilst keeping away from the big groups making the tour more personal and private. Our trip was our five people along with two other pairs, so don't think it will necessarily be just your group. However I think this adds to the experience. Thank you for being so helpful throughout the booking and providing us with a great tour guide. Will definitely be using this company again when in Ukraine!

5.00perfectly organized 2-day tour in the restricted area around the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Our guide has given us with precise background knowledge on the disaster through the deserted cities. The pleasant host family on the edge of the restricted area offered us a much nicer accommodation than the 4 star hotel in Kiev. On my next visit to the Ukraine, I would definitely go back to Green Tour Ukraine

5.00I had a great tour behind the scenes of Chernobyl and the ghost town of Pripyat. My guide Mikhail accompanied me perfectly through the day and had extensive detailed knowledge. Thank you for an interesting but also thought-provoking day about the Chernobyl disaster. Mo
