Solidarity Tours (TM): Ukraine

Solidarity Tours: Unique Ukraine - May 15-27, 2025

Ukraine has suffered under conflict for three years and needless to say, tourism has come to a near standstill.  However, you are able to both help Ukrainians and see this wonderful country by joining our Unique Ukraine tour in May. I've partnered with Sasha Vosk, founder and president of Rebuild Ukraine Travel, to offer a "Solidarity Tour" to the westernmost area of the country (centered in Lviv, pictured) and the magestic Carpathian Mountains. Whether you're seeking cultural enrichment, thrilling entertainment, or unforgettable nightlife adventures, Ukraine promises an exhilarating experience that will leave you wanting more. 


"Tourism is the best form of humanitarian aid" - Sasha Vosk, President, Rebuild Ukraine Travel

Trip Highlights & Safety

Countries:  2 (Poland and Ukraine)

Number of Days: 12 

Major Sites: UNESCO World Heritage Sites: Krakow Old Town, Lviv Old Town, St. George's Church in Drohobych, 

Fly in/out: Krakow, Poland

Safety:  Concerned about the situation in Ukraine? We understand your apprehension. While conflict persists predominantly in the eastern regions, much of the country remains open and operational, as depicted on the map (pictured).  We won't claim it's entirely risk-free; after all, Ukraine is in a state of war. However, consider countries like Israel, which has faced ongoing conflict yet still attracts millions of tourists annually. Safety, as anywhere, is contextual. When you choose to book with us, rest assured that we prioritize your safety. We connect you with services like International SOS and offer trip refunds in cases where travel becomes unsafe. Your peace of mind is our priority.
