Kiev overview

This quickly developing capital of Ukraine is emerging colourfully from its Soviet past and becoming a tourist hub for European and global visitors who book flights to Kiev interested in sampling its Eastern Slavic delights. Despite its many contemporary influences, which make it a pleasurable city to visit, well equipped with modern conveniences, you can still see traditional sights and sounds. This includes a glimpse of Babushkas outside the stations, which make this an intriguing and fascinating city for those who love historical places. Whether you appreciate fine cuisine or have a tighter budget, the city offers attractions and adventure for everyone who travels within her walls.

One of the city’s most visible attractions is the striking St Sophia’s Cathedral with its beautiful golden cupolas. A climb to the top rewards you with stunning views of the city and surrounding areas. The Pechersk Lavra Kiev Caves Monastery is probably the most visited attraction in Kiev and you will find it overlooking the Dnipro River.
