Amazing experience in Chornobyl - First, I want to thank our tour guide Daniel for its effort and kindness. I was worried about tour guide in the beginning. Because i read that some tour guides are not good. Thankfully, i met with Daniel. He has deep knowledge about the history of the area, even numeric details. For example, dates, numbers, how much steel and concrete used to made structures. He has so much information which made our tour more attractive. Otherwise, it would be go there and take picture. He is also so entertaining and friendly. He is good communicator with clear english.
Seeing old soviet town, remains of disaster, lessons learned from disaster was amazing experience for me. Moreover, you will see how nature recovered when there is no human interaction. You should have this experience.

Chernobyl and pripryat - We had tour on 2nd feb me and a couple of pals, what a fantastic tour, our tour guide was great can’t remember her name (think it was Alicia??) she was very knowledgeable and made sure we got round a lot of Chernobyl whilst avoiding the other people that were there,
First stop we went to was the duga soviet satellite that never worked, what a piece of engineering this thing is!
The power plant it’s self is something else, it has to be seen to be believed, the dinner in the canteen was something else as well, I had been on a session the night before and hadn’t been very well, and it looked like they served that back to me, it was vile!!! If you go take something with you!
Pripyat and the fair ground were unbelievable, the fair ground is chilling and you can’t believe how big the place was,
Lots of friendly dogs knocking about, long day but what a trip, Definitely the best excursion I have been on,
Would 100% recommend go2chernobyl as an operator,
Thanks again

Knowledgeable Guide - The tour was excellent, very well organised with a great guide who clearly knew his stuff. He said he’d had an interest in the disaster before becoming a guide. The tour was well paced, very interesting. The town is very eerie and sad, seeing what appeared to have been a beautiful town going to wrack and ruin.

Great trip - Great guide who knew so much about Chernobyl. Everything was good except the lunch. It was dreadful. Please bring your own as the one they serve is dreadful. Do not buy the one the tour offers.

Chernobyl visit disappointment. - I booked and paid for this trip which was one of the main reasons for my visit to Ukraine.
I was at the pick up point from 0700 to 0830 but bus didn’t turn up.
I messaged the tour operator-no reply.
I rang Viator and got nowhere. Thoroughly gutted as Chernobyl would have been a highlight of my trip. Just hope I get a refund!

No Tour Guide Appear - We saw no tour guide at the meeting point, we wasted our time waiting for the tour guide but eventually no one come. We tried to contact the operator through Tripadvisor's app, again, no one reply us. It is a terrible experience and we are very disappointed!

Never again with this organization! - Unfortunately, the trip never took place. No one picked me up!
I waited 45 minutes at the agreed meeting point but no one showed up. The phone didn't work either and emails remain unanswered to this day!

SCAM... FRAUD - Nobody showed up. I was there early. I waited. I called. I texted. Nothing. I am currently disputing the charge for the entire trip because it is fraud and a scam
