Cradle of Slavic Civilization

Bigger than France or Germany, Ukraine is the borderland between Europe and Russia, populated by Slavic tribes for over a thousand years. A visit to Ukraine is packed with contrasting experiences: glittering golden cupolas and imperial palaces, the sunny Black Sea coast, sobering Chernobyl, and the lasting cultural legacy of the Slavic people. A patchwork of traditions, rich history, and warm hospitality, Ukraine is a rewarding destination.

  • "Ukraine was very special to me – a long-awaited (lifetime dream) pilgrimage, much more than a vacation. MIR staff were always accommodating and helpful. My compliments on a wonderful experience."
