    Outstanding in Every Way
    This was a great trip booked in advance with Green Tour Ukraine. Quite a long way out from our base in Kyiv but we’ll worth over 7 hours travelling. Located at the only surviving command silo and missile silo left in Ukraine, this place oozes Cold War. Vehicles and tanks abound including the transport and installation transports for the missiles themselves. A small museum records the history of missiles in Ukraine and then the main event, underground tunnels through to the command silo, very small lift 45m down til the 12 and 13 floors to the command room and the famous button and emergency accommodation. Back up through the massive ventilation plant room and then time to visit the outdoor exhibits. Really good day out and special thanks to Elena our guide who was a walking encyclopaedia of all things missiles, Soviet era and Ukraine.

    Great tour
    Sergij was the perfect guide and the tour across the city and to the island was amazing! I recommend it highly to discover Kiev by bike.

    Private tour of Kiev
    Excellent organisation. Good communication with the tour company. Our guide Katerina was very informative. She gave us lots of tips for exploring the city ourselves after the organised tour. We found it good value for money. Standard of driving was really good and safe from. Uri.

    Avoid this company
    I booked the Small Group Tour of Lviv. We turned up at 9:55 for our 10:00am tour and no guide was there. After two phone calls to Green Tour they said that the guide was late and would come at 11am. To be fair they offered to refund the tour, but this didn’t get sorted until I contacted customer care. They offered to provide the tour for free. We turned up again at 11am where the guide asked my name and where I was from but ignored my friend. She actually said that the tour was only booked for 1 person and not 2 which was not true. She didn’t make very much interaction other than to say about 5 times that “I’ve took the money” and she was “providing this tour for free”. She then proceeded to rush us around to finish in 1 hour 40 mins. My friend was really upset that there wasn’t enough time to take photos as it was so rushed. He actually left at 12.30pm because he was unhappy not to have been even spoken to by the guide one single time - and there were only two of us on the tour. I would therefore NOT recommend this tour or Green Tours. The guides are unreliable and unprofessional and I suggest you book with another reputable company.

    English tour in Kiev
    Driver Yuriy and guide Konstantin were great. Very professional, Perfect English, very flexible for requests. We were just 2 on the tour, so ended up being on a private tour. My son and I enjoyed this tour a lot. Highly recommended!!!

    Don’t take the slow beach road
    For unknown reason, the driver decided to take a route which went through several beach towns with narrow roads and huge amounts of traffic on a Sat. It took over 3 hrs to reach the site and 2 hrs home so I had to shorten my tour by 1 hour. The guide was very informative and the site is worth a trip.

    Wonderful Experience
    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.

    Great experience, and great to support locals
    My parents visited me in August 2019 while I was living in Ukraine. This experience was a highlight for them, and they still tell their friends stories, especially because of the “at home” feel!

    Exceeded Expectations
    Our private Ukrainian Cooking Class in Kiev exceeded expectations. Everything from the private kitchen in a local home, to the explanation of the ingredients, and the process of preparing the food contributed to the authentic experience of learning more about Ukrainian culture through its food. Our hosts were welcoming and kind, the food was delicious, and the entire experience was enjoyable despite our level of expertise with cooking. I would highly recommend this class to everyone, no matter your age or background, as an excellent way to immerse yourself in Ukrainian culture while enjoying good food and conversation.

    Excellent way to see a lovely city!
    We had a half day guided tour of Kiev and our guide Anna was brilliant. She took us everywhere in Kiev and her knowledge of the history of Kiev was second to none. Thanks to Anna our 3 hour tour didn’t feel like we’d been walking and talking for that long. It is probably the best way to see the city and I would recommend it to anyone.

    Very much worthwhile cooking class to see the value of home cooking
    Truly worthwhile excursion, compactly arranged in three hours including the transportation. Also very flexible in scheduling. The class was hands-on for a small group (they hold a class for solo, too). Food is a full meal equivalent so do not eat before the class I now feel to have understood why Borsch has been loved by so many people for a long time. Home made one is distinctively delicious.

The tour goes to 3 underground parts of the city (the description says it's supposed to be 4), which gives you a nice insight about what Lviv has gone through since 13th century. The pick up was smooth, and the tour lasted 1 hour and 45 minutes (versus 2hr and 30mins advertised). During the visit to Church of the Jesuits underground, while explaining the mode of the city the guide was not articulate enough where we are on the city model. When asked to explain, she got impatient, and instead of being articulate and explaining the location in other words, made a joke in a words of "oh my god, you are like little children", in a not a nice or friendly tone. To a degree we were happy that the tour lasted a lot shorter than advertised.

We had an almost three hour tour of several underground crypts and secret restaurants around Lviv. It’s our first trip here and we thoroughly enjoyed the private tour. Our guide was friendly, professional, and a good sport. We highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Lviv for the first time and just want a laid back introduction to some basic hotspots. Thanks for a great time!

I almost missed this tour because I did not know I had to meet up with my guide..still I took a taxi hoping to meet at the Opera house but didn’t realize that my taxi dropped me off at the wrong location. Unfamiliar with the city, I took a taxi and went back to my hotel. What my guide did was amazing..after almost 2 & a half hours of waiting for me, she came directly to my hotel and picked me up and my day was salvaged. She did not rush the tour and was very knowledgeable and even took me to get souvenirs and walked me back to my hotel afterwards. Amazing!

Wow, what an experience! A famous quotation “All’s well that ends well” is just about your situation. It should have been very confusing at the beginning when the taxi driver took you to the wrong location, but luckily you managed to meet your guide and enjoy the tour in full. We are very happy to hear that you are satisfied with your guide’s knowledge and attention. We’d love to see you on our tours in the future!

What a brilliant tour we had. I booked this tour as we’d never visited Lviv despite my husband been from Ukraine. Our guide Paul was informative, friendly and showed us so many places we’d never have discovered. His knowledge was incredible. It’s a definite must if you are in Ukraine.

We really enjoyed our city walk with a guide ! Everything was so perfect and easy - online booking, online payment, email communication with the agency... Our guide was waiting for us perfectly on time. We loved all the places where he took us, it was an amazing mixture of ancient, recent and modern athmosphere of the city ! We would never experience it without the tour. Thanks a lot for amazing memories we still keep alive in our mind !

Widely travelled herself, Yulia - if that is how she spells her name - was an excellent guide on top of her subject, always willing to consider additional questions raised during this private, underground tour with a group of eight. Our group of four enjoyed the new vistas she added to our appreciation of Lviv. The visit to the Coffee Mine generated mixed feelings. Though the underground labyrinth was authentic and the caramelised coffee was fine, the very noisy show in the crammed up cave was too much off a good thing.

We had a great private tour with LvivBuddy tours and Uliana. The company was very communicative and instructions for meeting were easy and clear. Uliana was so informative and let us modify the tour agenda to skip a few stops that we had visited already that day. She provided great information, answered our questions, and sat with us for awhile for a break in the tour to talk about overall life in Lviv. Such a great experience and thank you Uliana!
