General Tips: No flights to Lugans'k on weekends, try Donetsk
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: Since there are no flights from the Kiev airport on weekends, you have a couple choices. One is the train, but it's an excruciating 17 hour trip and unless you have all the time in the world (I don't) I would suggest trying to fly into Donetsk. It's a fairly short flight on a really old and somewhat "worn" aircraft (Antonoff 24) by American standards, but I got there and back with no problem. Don't expect a heated tunnel to the door (you take a bus to the plane and walk up the ramp), anyone to carry your bags, or a warm plane upon your arrival (mine didn't fire up until after 15 minutes).

    Fondest Memory: Getting into the taxi and having the driver offer me a piece of his chicken he just bought...

    General Tips: VISA Needed
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: If you're American you'll need a Visa to enter Ukraine. I've used ukrainetrip.com several times, and I'd recommend them if you prefer to use an agency to process it for you.

    General Tips: Learn some Russian and get a guide
  • Tip Rating:
  • Favorite Thing: It's very helpful to learn some basic Russian expressions before you visit. I'd also recommend getting a reliable, English-speaking guide because not many people I met spoke alot of English. I was able to visit many places that I'm sure I wouldn't have found on my own. Check out (Victor) hunterv of Luhans'k and tell him you're coming, he's a great guy and would be happy to show you around.

     Great site of Luhansk, and to think I rented the same apartment as you only last week :-) I am glad you met Victor, aka HunterV, he is the Oracle of Luhansk in my eyes :-)
