The Orange Revolution brought the world's attention to developments in this massive yet enigmatic country, and now ancient towns, the vast plains, mountains and Black Sea coast are firm favourites with those who choose holidays to Ukraine. Popular for city breaks are the cities of Kiev and Lviv where visitors are drawn to the breathtaking frescoes in St Sophia's Cathedral and the Golden Gate in Kiev and the lovely faded Baroque and Renaissance architecture of Lviv's Old Town.
Venture into the dramatic Carpathian Mountains, where the ethnic Hutsul people follow their traditions in hidden valleys, and hike to the peak of the highest mountain, Goverla, for superb panoramas. Search out the profusion of castles and wooden churches, in particular medieval Kamenets Podilsky teetering on a rocky outcrop. Chernobyl may be off limits to residents, but you can join a short guided tour to the devastated site of the nuclear disaster.
For a change of pace while on your Ukraine holidays, head to the Crimea for some wine tasting and take in the historical landmark, Balaklava, and the underground submarine base at Sevastopol. In Odessa, relax on the sandy beach on the shores of the Black Sea and pose for a photograph on the Potemkin Steps.
Regent Holidays arranges tailor-made itineraries, group tours and fly-drive holidays to Ukraine, as well as city breaks to Kiev, Lviv and Odessa.
Holidays in Ukraine - perfect for...
Ukraine holidays are a great choice for history buffs. In Sevastapol, survey the eerie battle fields of Balaklava where, during the Crimean War, the Charge of the Light Brigade entered the infamous ‘Valley of Death’. Fans of religious architecture will be fascinated by stunning churches and unique cave monasteries where you can browse the crypts filled with mummified monks. Rail enthusiasts will no doubt enjoy the overnight trains between Ukraine’s main cities.
