From February 19 the Chornobyl zone will be temporarily closed

We understand that this is most likely due to the threat of Russian aggression and the proximity of the border with Belarus. Many Ukrainians and foreign tourists, including those staying in Ukraine for personal or work reasons, and journalists have recently visited Chornobyl.

One-day scheduled tour to the Chernobyl zone and Pripyat-town
An eye-opening experience. Marylyn, Ohio, US
Thank you for all of your hard work, you were an amazing tour guide and your guidance is on an important topic all human beings living in this global society should know about. Elise, Fulbright scholar, US
Chernobyl is the most famous Ukrainian phenomenon. If you plan to visit Ukraine or are already in the country, don’t miss the most important and unique experience and site.
The event, which got name "the Chernobyl Disaster”, has changed the trajectory of our civilization development; it is the most evident contribution of Ukraine into the global history. Its place – the Chernobyl Zone, with the nuclear power plant (NPP), which doesn’t produce energy anymore but instead paradoxically consumes it, and an abandoned ghost town of Pripyat, – like a time machine, let you see the events past and realize how both history and nature works. The intricate ensemble of hundreds of impressive technical and cultural monuments is surrounded and engulfed by flourishing nature, which has gone wild in this area.
Advanced skills and novel understanding, gained in practical dealing with radiation accident on their native land for more than quarter century, have made the Ukrainians the planetary leaders in the field. Our innovative Chernobyl trips employ all this front-line, cutting-edge expertise, and deliver it in clear, user-friendly and enjoyable way. You will learn many important yet not widely known things about radiation, radiation contamination and radiation survival, which are crucially useful nowadays, as the Fukushima accident has recently shown. Our trips are designed and often led by an internationally known expert in Chernobyl and radiation accidents Sergii MIRNYI, who is also an award-winning writer, and was an officer of radiation reconnaissance in the Chernobyl Zone during the first month after the accident.
Two-, three-, four-, five- and seven-day scheduled tours to the Chernobyl zone and Pripyat-town
The diversity and richness of the Chernobyl zone is so vast that it is impossible to cover it in a 1-day visit. Striving to discover and convey this richness to the Zone visitors, and responding to requests of our tourists, Chernobyl-TOUR has a program of 2-, 3-, 4, 5, 6, and 7-day trips.
In several-day tours, in addition to more detailed acquaintance with the most famous objects (the Chernobyl NPP, towns of Pripyat and Chernobyl) you get a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the wonderful nature of the Zone untrodden nooks, meet very peculiar people – selfsettlers-samosely – and discover their way of life, which is so close to nature. In addition, you will feel the magic of Chernobyl night and the beauty of waking up to birds' singing outside Chernobyl hotel. (Just in case: the level of radiation in Chernobyl-town is the same as in Kiev, i.e. normal :) )
