- Join us as we visit Kyiv (Київ) for the first time covering numerous attractions and things to do in the city of Kiev, Ukraine in this travel guide. Kiev city is a destination we didn't know much about prior to traveling to Ukraine. Arriving with fresh eyes it didn't take us long to fall in love with Kyiv. With incredible cathedrals, churches and monasteries to explore our days were busy and in terms of food we really enjoyed eating at traditional Ukrainian restaurants and sampling International food such as Georgian cuisine. Overall, we feel Kiev is one of the most underrated cities we've ever visited.

20 Things to do in Kiev, Ukraine Travel Guide Video Script:
This week we’re showing you around Kiev, Ukraine. This was our first time travelling to the country, so we hardly knew what to expect, though we did have an inkling we’d find churches with onion domes, borsht on every menu, and very cheap prices, but that was it!
Well, we found some of that, but we also discovered a fascinating city with ornate architecture, massive Soviet monuments, a completely new cuisine, more churches and monasteries than we ever thought possible, and friendly people despite the language barrier.
The following is our travel guide to the city. Now let us share with you 20 things to do in Kiev on your next visit!
And that’s a wrap for our visit to Kiev! This was our first time travelling in Ukraine, but we were hooked right from the start.
This destination felt very underrated with few tourists around, yet we were surrounded by beautiful architecture, there were churches galore to visit, the cuisine was hearty and filling, and everything was super affordable.
If you are thinking of travelling to Kiev, we hope this video was able to give you a taste of what it’s like.
If you have any other suggestions of things to do in Kiev, that we may have missed, feel free to share your tips and suggestions with travellers in the comments.
This is part of our Travel in Ukraine video series showcasing Ukrainian food, Ukrainian culture & cuisine.

A few tour ideas for KIEV, Ukraine 🇺🇦
Двадцать лет тому назад я посетил золотой Киев. Киев - просто потрясающий город! Хочу вернуться туда очень скоро! Изучаю украинский язык - будет совершенно приятно общаться с людьми там на государственном языке. Слава Украине 🇺🇦
You forgot to say that Kyiv - is one of the oldest capitals of Europe. When in London and Paris were running wild bears - in Kyiv, built the churches. Kyiv - is a special energy place. A mystical, ancient city with many secrets, both on the surface and under the earth, in endless caves and catacombs... Kyiv - called Orthodox Jerusalem. Kyiv - in the Middle Ages was the most important Slavic city. It was a symbol of power and grandeur. For the throne of Kyiv, as in the Games of Thrones, there was a constant battle between the prince brothers.
slava ukraina respect from georgia
i love this country
Welcome to Kyiv guyyyys, Welcome to Ukraine 🇺🇦
Thank you for sharing your Ukrainian experience and promoting our country! I'm glad you enjoyed the visit and I hope you'll be back!
Glad you guys liked it . Ukraine is a jewel!
My favorite place to visit in Kyiv was the "new" botanical garden, nicely situated on the hills overlooking the river, nice and quiet on weekdays.
You guys are so fun. Thank you for spreading the positive message. It means a lot to us Ukrainians.
My favorite city in the world :) Ty!
i just got back to the US from visiting Kyiv and Poland. I re-watched this video before my trip, and it was very useful, especially the part about the dress code for the caves. I traveled with my son, and we saw most of what you showed here and had a great time! We didn't go to the Chernobyl museum, but we did do the actual tour to Chernobyl itself! Wow! Also another thing we did not listed here was go to the corruption museum north of Kyiv. The opulence of the estate built by money stolen from the Ukranian people really made you think about the 2014 revolution.
Thanks you guys to make Ukraine more open for outworld
Thank you guys for an amazing video. You spoke with such love of my hometown! It wasn't until you posted this video that I realized there is indeed so much to see in Kiev.
Great video, thank you for warm words about my native city. Welcome back!)
Love your videos - not overdone, just perfect, genuine and down to earth.
This was a wonderful things-to-do video of Kiev. All your thing-to-do videos are very good. Thank you for sharing.
In the Soviet times, Kyiv was such a quiet patriarchal place, always nice to visit after craziness of Moscow or coldness of SPB (Saint Petersburg), now Keiv is turning to being a more hipster place, but with this unmistakeable "homey" feel.
Looks so beautiful.Great video!!😀🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Absolutely amazing video with pleasant music that didn't distract. I am so excited about my trip to the Ukraine now!
