Flights to Kiev: travel for cheap and take-off for the best price

Famed for its historic past, the city of Kiev is a fascinating destination to visit. Many people remember Kiev for Chernobyl, WWII and the Soviet rule in the past. Today, Kiev is the capital city of the Ukraine and the centre of splendid Ukrainian culture.

Essentials in Kiev

Chernobyl Museum: At the top of the sightseeing list is the Chernobyl Museum, a moving display of Europe's biggest nuclear tragedy.

Percherska Lavra: Percherska Lavra is a cave monastery from the 11th century, dug out by monks who lived there as hermits. It's a fascinating place with complex tunnels and cave rooms where the remains of mummified monks lay.

Kiev culture: Walking around the city is the best way to explore the treasures hiding here. Start your walking tour at St. Michael's Cathedral and catch the funicular down to the grid-like streets of Podil which was a merchant district in the old times but today is a chic restaurant district. People-watching in Kreshchatyk is endless fun while for something more cultural, catch a traditional service at one of the city's Orthodox churches.
