Fun glimpse of a cultural activity - This was a wonderful excursion which was a fun activity with a glimpse into a culture different from ours.
We were met at our hotel by the guide, who drove us by private car to the artist's home where we learned about painting eggs, had tea and snacks, purchased professionally painted eggs, and enjoyed a wonderful conversation. Afterwards, the guide dropped us off at our requested destination.
This is a fun activity for all ages, not simply children.

Excellent Egg Painting Workshop! - We were in Kiev for four days and we all felt this workshop was the highlight of our holiday! We were picked up right at our hotel by a very knowledgeable guide who spoke great English. We were taken about 20 min from the city into a residential apartment area that we were interested in seeing as it was clearly a local Ukrainian town. The Master also spoke good English so we understood her easily as she explained each step and guided us as we designed and created our own eggs. The master also treated us to a cup of tea and homemade cake. We all left feeling we had met a true Ukrainian and with a beautiful reminder of our trip to Kiev. Would highly suggest this tour. If I ever go back I would absolutely do this again.
