Kyiv is more than 1,500 years old! Not only is it one of the top-10 largest cities in Europe, it is now an important business, cultural and educational center. The “city of chestnuts,” as it is fondly referred because of its abundance of the fragrant blooming trees in late summer, will charm you with its mix of grand centuries-old landmarks that have withstood the passage of time and gleaming signs of Ukraine’s status today as a high-tech IT powerhouse. This tour will take you to must-see destinations including the Golden Gate, St. Sophia’s Cathedral (founded in 1037!), St. Michael’s Cathedral, St. Andrew’s Descent, and Independence Square. Enjoy this comfortable and relaxing walk while exploring the city's rich history.
