Private Tours in Kyiv (Kiev) — Dark War Tours & City Excursions

Travel company Kyivtrip has been welcoming visitors to the capital of Ukraine since 2007. Whether you are coming to Kyiv for the first time or returning to see more of this extraordinary city, we offer private individual tours tailored to your interests — from in-depth war history and dark tours to classic sightseeing, mystical legends and VIP excursions by car. All tours run 7 days a week, with private guides speaking English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Arabic, Hebrew, Turkish, etc.

Dark tours & war tours — Bucha, Irpin, Hostomel

Our dark tours take you to the war sites in the Kyiv region — Bucha, Irpin, Hostomel, Horenka and Moshchun — where the 2022 Russian occupation and the Battle of Kiev left marks that are still visible today. These private guided tours are available as a half-day Bucha and Irpin excursion, a full-day tour combined with the "Kyiv at War" open-air exhibition, or an extended full-day journey across all key battle sites. Recommended for travellers, journalists, historians and anyone who wants to understand the human reality of the war in Ukraine.

Popular Kiev tours

Our classic Kiev city tour remains the most popular introduction to the capital. In 3 hours you visit St. Sophia Cathedral (UNESCO World Heritage Site), St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery, the ancient St. Andrew's Church, Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, Khreshchatyk Street and Independence Square — Maidan. Looking for something darker? The Mystical Kiev tour uncovers the legends of Kyiv witches, the secrets of Castle Hill and the hidden courtyards of Podil that most visitors never find. Also well worth a visit: the Mezhyhirya tour — the Museum of Corruption, former secret residence of President Yanukovych, now one of the most unusual sights near Kiev.

VIP car tours on Toyota Land Cruiser Prado

For guests who want comfort and flexibility, we offer premium private car tours in Kiev aboard a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado. Cover more of the city in less time — Night Kyiv, the best panorama viewpoints, hidden courtyards, Landscape Alley above the Dnipro River, and places that no walking tour can reach. A perfect choice for families, senior travellers and business visitors on a tight schedule.
