Tour: «VIP Chernobyl»
1986 shook the whole world. A large-scale accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power station was spoken of everywhere. People were mass evacuated, and thousands of people were working on the elimination of a man-made disaster. Now, hundreds of kilometers have become a true waste. Once merry and full of people, the city is now empty, and stadiums, schools and plantations are overgrown with trees. And only over the Chernobyl AES from far away is a huge Sarcophagus. During the expedition, you will have a unique opportunity to communicate with those who refused to leave their home and leave the dangerous cities and villages. This expedition is not for everyone. If you like the thrill and want to feel the breath of death or chills down your spine - this tour is for you.
In addition, during the trip, you will also visit the capital of Ukraine - the city of Kyiv. Here, you will find an expedition into the historical past, an unforgettable trip to the Dnieper, and kilometers of wild, untouched nature, swimming in crystal clear water, lying on boundless sandy beaches, and seeing wild fauna and flora.
Also, during the trip, you will visit one of the oldest Ukrainian cities - Chernihiv. This city is the capital of the forest empire. In Chernihiv, there are many buildings with interesting stories; on Shevchenko's street, a nobleman Grigoriy Hlybov built a house as a gift to his beloved. This house bears unusual architecture. On the street of Tolstoy, there is a dollhouse building whose head is secured under the roof; in Kyiv, there is a ghost restaurant in which the caring staff leaves a full glass overnight.

Looking for adventure? Then journey to Ukraine!
Ukraine has a grand and tragic history. A long time ago, brutal conquerors invaded this beautiful and fertile land and enslaved the Ukrainian people. Since the days of Tripoli and Kyivan Rus, Ukraine has fought for its independence. But no captives could take away the main attractions of Ukraine - the broad steppes, the blue sky, the rapid Carpathian Mountains, and the love Ukrainians had for their native land.
You will be able to plunge into the history of this beautiful and invincible country for several days. You will visit the biggest and brightest cities of Ukraine, get acquainted with Ukrainian culture more closely, talk to indigenous Ukrainians, and try some Ukrainian traditions. In addition, no one has turned down the tasting of bacon, borscht, and varenyky.
We will start the journey from Lviv, the center of the Galician academics, where the earthly life is raging, and delicious coffee and bittersweet chocolate are always poured.
We will gradually visit the most famous Ukrainian cities, and we will complete our journey with Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, where Volodymyr the Great and Yaroslav the Wise, who in ancient times dominated the fierce struggle for the patriarchal throne, where the most important political decisions were made, reigned in ancient times. We will celebrate Independence Day there, which is considered to be the most important holiday for millions of Ukrainians.
