I definitely recommend this tour for... - <p>I definitely recommend this tour for anyone wishing to not only see a display of corruption at its worst but also to get insights into the man Viktor Yanukovich whose bumbling actions would spark the 2014 Europmaidan revolution. I booked the six hour tour and was picked up at my hostel by the tour guide. We spent the entire day at the estate and I got to see all the major sites from the mansion to the zoo, the dogs, the car collection, and the grounds. I found the tour guide to be very helpful and knowledgeable. He was able to answer all my questions. I would recommend doing this tour on the weekends when all sites are open the mansion and car collection are closed at the beginning of the week to get the most out of your visit.</p>

Nice and beautiful place - President's palace or now as known as corruption palace is the surface residence of earlier president where all taxpayers money used to create luxury and resort for king. It is huge palace so you have to use bicycles or auto sccoter bike or golf cart. Part of it is closed but natural beauty greenery ponds trees flowers Flora n fauna is worth spending hours together. A very pleasant expereince specially for nature lovers.

21st century display of decadent spending - There were a number of options included with this tour which listed a tour of the dog training facility. When I discussed with our guide that we would like to go there she wasn't aware it was an option. After enquiring about it she advised we wouldn't have time to fit it in after the ?hombre (house). I may not have read the information correctly but when we got to the house it was a cash only entrance fee. The house is large , a blatant display of 21st century wealth instead of the 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th century homes/ palaces we later saw on our holiday. . I still wish I had seen the dog training facilities. We saw a lot more grand homes and palaces during our stay but no more dog training facility options.
