Highlighted reviews from other travelers
Tetiana was very informative and kept the tour interesting. She was knowledgeable and didn’t have to walk with a script as I have seen others in different tours do. She was very helpful to each guest. I wouldn’t hesitate in taking her tour again!
We really enjoyed this tour it wasn’t super crowded so we were able to follow our guide closely and get all the information. She also answered questions and followed up with information on other gravesites that guests were interested in but that weren’t included in our tour. On a side note some of the stories can be a little racy so I wouldn’t recommend for children. Our guide Tatiana was top notch!
