Excellent introduction to Kiev. My Ukrainian guide spoke very good English, conversed beautifully and showed me many buildings and churches. We even had time to have a meal at one restaurant and a coffee with chocolate at a special cafe. Very friendly guide see picture as were all the people and the city was full of colour, not least because of the painted Easter eggs still on display after the Orthodox Easter my visit was on May 4.
