- 9 reviews of SoloEast Travel Chernobyl Day Trip in Kiev
SoloEast would appreciate your making a Chernobyl tour reservation at least 10 business days in advance! Reservation of the tour on a shorter notice might not be available because of the security screening which is obligatory for every visitor to the Exclusion zone.
We offer discounts for students, seniors and for groups of three and more people - contact us for details.
All of our advertised prices include taxes, fees and charges, there are no hidden extras, what you see is what you get. Lunch is included. We will beat any price you find online (from a legal entity only).
Our booking process takes only few minutes. You can pay your deposit by a credit card 
or by PayPal 
or by bank wire. You can also "drop in" our Kiev's office or contact our partners in your country.
We are not a mediator! We provide the service ourselves - so should your plans be changed we can transfer your deposit to a different day, negotiate the cost of the tour or provide you with additional services you might need while in Ukraine. We are a fully legal tour operator. Book with confidence that you deal with a real company. Beware of Internet scams!
