Hi there! My name is Yurii. I was born in Kharkiv and love this city. I work in youth policy, really like travelling, volleyball, history and football and chess. Tours and sharing stories of our city Kharkiv is my passion. In total have 2 years of guiding experience in Kharkiv. I also organize walking tours of national parks, forests and interesting places in our Kharkiv region. Kharkiv is the first capital of Ukraine with population more than 1. 5 million people and a lot of interesting places. But, unfortunately, our city is not so popular among tourists. So we will change it together. Will be glad to make a city tour for you! I`m not a driver. I can arrange for a separate car, and driver. I can accompany you in your auto.

Walk through the history of Ukraine as a part of the USSR
Overview of your Kharkiv tour
If you heard something about the USSR and have already seen popular sights in the city and think that you will not be surprised anymore - then this tour is for you. "The first capital is the unofficial title of the city of Kharkiv" From 1919 to 1991, the city was part of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic. The city has always been in the TOP 3 in terms of power and productivity among all cities of the USSR, which means among 15 countries. It became so largely due to the investments and funds that were made during the reign of the USSR. In our walk, we will pay attention to the most popular and significant buildings of Soviet Ukraine in Kharkov. Much has already changed, but some buildings have been intact for about a century. We will plunge into the past era and try to imagine what the city looked like in the middle of the last century.
