Battle for Kyiv in Irpyn and Bucha

Sometimes history is difficult to believe, even after seeing it with your own eyes, but it is important to learn about and explore.

This tour to Irpyn and Bucha - satellite cities of Kyiv - will take you back to February 2022 and reveal the unbelievable story of Russian aggression, as well as Ukrainian resistance and bravery.

You will see:

  • Romaniv Bridge - the "road of life" used by Ukrainians to evacuate from Irpyn and Bucha.

  • The grave of civilian cars - bullet-riddled by the Russian army.

  • A bombed residential complex in Irpyn.

  • The mass grave of tortured and killed civilians on the grounds of a church in Bucha. If we are lucky, we will also speak with the church priest - a living witness to the war crimes committed by the Russian army.

  • And much more...
