I couldn't be more excited to recommend Iryna and her Cuisine Tour in a Ukranian Village. It was a truly memorable experience and our favorite day from our travels in Ukraine! We were welcomed by a wonderful family and spent the day on their farm where we ate a beautiful traditional meal they prepared farm-to-table. We learned how to cook pieroshkys (and received some hands on experience in the outdoor kitchen learning from our very patient hosts!) We had wonderful conversation with our host family and felt so welcomed into their home - we did not want the day to end!
Iryna also took us to the nearby traditional farmstead home (now museum) of Ukrainian opera singer Ivan Kozlovsky. We went on a personal tour of the museum and grounds given by an excellent village guide who sent us home with CDs of Kozlovsky's music. We felt so wamly wecomed by Iryna and these rural communities only a short travel distance outside Kiev. True Ukrainian experience and one we will never forget!

We had a full schedule seeing a bit of Kiev, Lviv, and Odesa in one week. With a couple over night trains to allow for more day time sight seeing. We had a wide variety of activities, attractions, museums, monasteries and churches, Ukrainian fine dining including entertainment, sea side relaxing, dolphin show, and more. Iryna is excellent and enthusiastic about what she does. She is flexible in adapting to changes in plans, able to plan ahead with her phone, helpful translator, good guide and navigator, can suggest excellent meals and places to eat, and pleasant person to have a conversation with. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her and the tours she gives.

Iryna helped me to visit St Sophie Cathedral and all the building surroundings. It was a great moment, very interesting. She was also a great host to enable me to start my tour easily. Very helpful and nice guide. I recommend her.
