Great break away from the city

5.00We had a great time with Iryna and Valodya they were amazing, very much considered for culture differences, they tried to assure that we don't miss anything in the tour from exploring the small village to the hand made carpet factory to the deep details in cooking Franika to the village small music festival to honey farm, we bought 2 kg of honey with a very cheap price right from the source. We had a great time listening to the stories of Ukraine culture and history. I definitely recommend them for this tour.
Ukraine in the countryside

5.00I really liked the tour. First we had visited the old bunker complex. Afterwards we were able to visit a German soldier cemetery. We went on to a museum and later to bathe in a very nice natural bath. At the end, the cooking was done. If you want to get to know Ukraine in the countryside, you have to do this tour.
Village Tour with Irina

5.00Irina was such a great guide for our village tour. The villages we saw were beautiful, and the home-cooked meal we ate at a locals home was delicious. It was such an authentic experience, from picking and eating berries from the trees, trying local honey, attempting to milk a goat, playing folk music with locals, and meeting a legacy weaver. We will never forget this day!
Authentic experience

5.00Booking this tour with Iryna was very easy. It was the authentic experience we were looking for. We went to a small village and to a local weaving shop. We were able to meet the owner and she gave us the history of weaving and the region. We also went to a country home to learn how to make varenyky (dumplings) and eat a wonderful home-made lunch including green borscht. Iryna was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the area. She answered the many questions we asked her. Everyone was very hospitable and we enjoyed the experience very much. I highly recommend booking this tour or any other tour with Iryna. She is a fantastic tour guide!
All the things I wanted to do and see

5.00Arranging this was very easy over WhatsApp and email. I explained what I wanted to do and iryna arranged everything. This was one of four trips I arranged with her. I was met at my hotel by iryna and a driver and car. We visited various local villages, a market and ended up with a cooking class. Arriving in a local village I was taught how to make local dumplings which were served with homemade borscht along with some local tipples. Thank you I would recommend iryna for any trips you are thinking of arranging in Kiev.
