City tour Kyiv with Dimitro

This was an exceptional tour with Dimytro. He is Kyiv native, a journalist, writer, and an academic of Ukraine’s history. We returned home to the States with a deep understanding of the present day conflict with Russia, and a true a love of the country and its courageous people. If you have an opportunity to spend a few days in Kyiv, I highly recommend you take this tour, and request Dimytro as your guide.
