    This tour to Kyiv, Lviv and Odesa is absolutely fantastic! A great way to see the highlights of Ukraine in one week. Everything was immaculately organized by Evgenia from Ornament Ukraine Travel Company, who was fantastic. She was quick to reply, very helpful and kept checking in on us throughout our trip. The pick ups, drop offs, tours, hotels and transportation were all seamless, and really enabled us to enjoy our trip. The city tours were informative and well organized, and the local guides were very friendly. We had a great time in Ukraine - definitely recommend everyone to visit!
