For those coming here for the first time, as well as for those who have already been once and are planning another trip, we have gathered hundreds of Kyiv attractions in one place and specially created walking routes.

We are travelers ourselves, and we know how much time trip planning takes: browsing dozens of websites, choosing interesting sights, placing them on Google Maps...

That is why we – Ever.Travel – created the mobile app “Trip Planner and Travel Guide” for iPhone and Android.

If you do not have time to plan, the app will help you see the highlights with ready-made routes.

Those who like planning everything themselves can choose the most interesting places from hundreds of attractions, build them into an itinerary, and then use it as a personal travel guide to Kyiv.

Read the detailed instructions on how to plan your trip on iPhone or Android.
