The vast majestic Dnipro River is one of the symbols of Kyiv and Ukraine. We have an old saying in Ukraine that a rare bird can fly to the middle of this river. Now you have a chance of kayaking downstream by this legendary river. Departing from the huge metropolis, we immediately get into another world, where time flows at a different pace. The city vanity and noise disappear at once.
If you join one of our scheduled trips, most of the participants will be citizens of Kyiv. So this will be a great opportunity to meet some locals and make new friends.
Our trip begins from the suburbs of Kyiv and runs further south through untouched nature. This tour is an excellent opportunity for beginners to get acquainted with kayaking.
We go with the flow, admiring the views and enjoying the peacefulness of Ukrainian nature. We will see amazing sunsets and sunrises, spend the night on an uninhabited island, eat food cooked on the open fire, sing and play the guitar by the bonfire! We hope you will join us! :)
Highlights of the trip:
- River kayaking
- Picturesque scenery of the majestic Dnipro River
- Fishing
- Unexplored places near Kyiv: the Compass adjustment buoy, the base of torpedo boats, а sunken ship
- Camping
- Tasty camping food
- Singing and playing guitar by the fire
Who can participate?
Anyone can go with us. Physical form and experience doesn’t matter. The main thing is a desire to see beautiful landscapes, enjoy a leisurely journey along the river and take a break from the city turmoil.
