Those who want to get down and really meet the locals rather than just sweatily bumping into them on the streets, in metro carriages and late night clubs should check out the new tourist guide service offered by Sputnik. It’s a simple scheme whereby local volunteers take visitors into the best parts of their daily life; whether it be hidden roof top vistas, flea markets, cooking classes, art studios, or extreme tour to underground Kyiv, every tour is unique, insightful and enlightening. Envisaged as a cross-cultural project they aim to give tourists a slice of real life and show them offbeat routs and things in the city. Guided tours in English from 60Hr.
