Asya Lazo

“Poignant, holy spectacular!”
The Kyivo Pecherska Lavra guided tour is the best way for non Kyivites to soak up the history, the architecture, the devotion and the orthodox majesty of this ancient, holy site. All the major and less well known sites were absorbed and referenced by the expert guided narrative, which gave an excellent insight into the reverence this multi purpose religious precinct has for orthodox Ukrainians. A follow up visit is considered a must to consolidate upon the wealth of substantive information offered by the guide.
Essential Kyiv experience!!

“Excellent overview with good guide.”
Our private guide, Asya, was excellent. The site is very large divided into the upper and lower parts which was managed easily in 2 hours although more time could be spent there. The optional extras offered came very cheaply and were certainly worth the effort, especially the museum of miniatures. The guide gave us very good information about everything but was also open to talking about any subjects outside the remit of the tour. At the end she also accompanied us to the Motherland monument and the War Museum as well as recommending good local eateries.
