Thank you for visiting my website.
 
My name is Andriy and I’m from Volodymyr-Volynsky in Volhynia, northwestern Ukraine.
In addition to Ukrainian, I am fluent in English, Polish and Russian.
 
For the past three years, I have been providing visitors to western Ukraine with customized tours throughout the region. These tours include transportation, interpretation, and sightseeing as well as any other guide services that may be requested. Over the years, I have become very familiar with the area and its many sights and facilities, so I am able to design a tour individually tailored to each client.
 
The planning process for each tour begins well in advance of the actual tour; through email and Skype, the client and I begin by determining their particular wants and needs. Whether the goal is to locate family roots or see certain sights, this advanced planning process allows me to identify what will best suit that customer, and then design the tour based on these wants and needs.
 
Spending a number of days with a tour guide in Ukraine, a country you are not familiar with can be a real challenge. That is why a guide needs to be able to read and understand the client and adapt to each circumstance. I am very much a people person; I pride myself on being empathetic and sensitive to my clients’ needs.
 
I am also very passionate about my business. I love meeting new people and showing them the many wonders of my country. This is particularly true for visitors whose ancestors came from Ukraine; to help these people find and uncover their family roots, is a truly rewarding experience.
 
I look forward showing Ukraine to you!
 
I’m happy to be a genealogist, a tour guide and an interpreter in Volynia, Galicia and all over Ukraine, to have a chance to do what I really adore.
 
Sincerely,
Andriy Dorosh
