Kiev Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

I booked a Bucha/Irpin trip with them because I wanted to what is really going on in Ukraine.. I could see how resilient the Ukrainian people are especially if you see how quick they are rebuilding everything. Next to that, I just arrived that morning in Kyiv and I was a little nervous dealing with real air raids for the first time, but Olga and Roman understood me and did everything they could to let me feel safe and pretty quickly I was super relaxed and had a very impressive experience, even emotional at some times I would recommend these guys to everyone! They are genuine Ukrainian people that gave me an experience I will never forget and I already want to share their stories and my experience with the world!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I did the 4 hr Bansky art tour in Kyiv, Irpin and Bucha with Liudmyla and Yuri (driver). A great experience with a very knowledgeable guide. Saw 5 of the paintings, 2 are in hiding.

Sviatoslava, Thank you for this wonderful initiative! I am a travel book writer from Germany. I have written two books about Kyiv…and I am hoping like you that we can all be in silent, peaceful Kyiv some time soon! Take care…and keep going ☀️⛱️! Warm Hello, Heike Maria Johenning

Even in uncertain times, it was really amazing to visit Kyiv. Kyiviset arranged a splendid tour for me with Olga as a guide that was amazing!It was really nice to hear about the rich history of the brave people of ukraine and learn more where the customs and traditions come from. Learned a lot! Also really nice is that a local takes you around town and show you the best spots!Next time when i visit this gorgeous city i will book again!Can't wait 🤗

Inna was a fantastic guide, tailoring our tour by car specifically for us. She is extremely knowledgeable and her enthusiasm and friendliness made our experience a lot of fun. Our tour with Inna really made our trip to Kyiv and helped us to get to know the city in a short time. Inna speaks excellent English and was very flexible, picking us up from our hotel and dropping us off for lunch in the Old Town at the end of our tour. I would definitely recommend Inna as a tour guide for anyone who wants a local perspective on this amazing city.

I had the experience of having Inna, show me around the renowned city of Kiev. I had an amazing time that was very informative and learn so much. My guide Inna was very informative, educated and extremely charismatic. Made my day with her very enjoyable. Hope to do it again soon the next time I'm in Ukraine.

That was the most interesting tour I have ever had. Our tour guide is too energetic, love to give information and never fed up the answering questions..The amazing day.. thanks for your kindness Inna.)

Such a fun experience ! They were so nice to us, we laughed so much! The food was delicious. I 100% recommend this cooking lesson. We LOVED it! Thank you again ☺️

The tour exceeded our expectations. Our guide Daniel, was helpful, informative, entertaining and respectful with the subject matter and helped create a great atmosphere among the people of our group. we were very glad we could take this tour and would recommend it 100%

Excursion was great. It was very interesting and entertaining. We also liked our guide very much. Great experiance!

I really enjoyed this tour of Kyiv street art with Liudmyla. We covered lots of ground and saw a whole range of murals that I never would have found alone. Liudmyla was enthusiastic, positive and more than happy to answer all my questions about street art, history and everything else about Kyiv and Ukraine. Highly recommend!

I had a day free in Kiev before a tour of the Carpathians and as I have done most of the more obvious tourist attractions on a previous visit ,I decided to visit this open air museum just a short drive south of the city. The village was so pretty with thousands of flowers in the cottage gardens all tended by a Babooshka house proud of their own domains and eager to chip in with extra advice. A perfect day out. I would also like to say my guide ( Anastasia) was first class , with faultless English, a super bright person and a complete mine of information on the history and geography of the Ukraine , with some lovely stories.

We had a fabulous tour and our guide was an absolute expert. It was a religious holiday when we went and he knew when to go and how to get around the crowds. We had a wonderful day and highly recommend this tour.

Our tour guide was Anastasia. The open air museum was entertaining, insightful, and a great learning experience! Our guide was very knowledgeable and gave detailed explanations while relating to her own family stories. She also gave us helpful tips for the rest of our time in Kiev. Highly recommended!

The ladies were wonderful. Mother daughter team are very nice. Daughter speaks good English and translate for mom. It was fun getting in there and mixing up the dough and getting to cut up all the ingredients for the borscht. The Varenky are fun to make and had three different kinds. When I come back to Kyiv, this will be on my list. My wife and I had fun. It is a must if you want to taste the Real Ukrainian dishes.

Amazing tour! Nastya, our guide was super fun and knowledgeable. She had a lot of history and stories. Told us about some hidden gems to check out later. Definitely booking another tour soon! Thank you!!
