Welcome to Odesa! Smell the sea air and marvel at its old-world feel as you walk its historic streets and booming port.
Upon arrival in Odesa, you will be met and transferred to your hotel at the very city centre. Take some time to refresh and unpack your suitcases, then we will head out into the city for a city orientation tour. After, take some time to bask in the sun’s rays, explore its hidden courtyards or try one of its many hip bars…

Today you will discover historic Odesa!
After breakfast at the hotel, we will take you on a city tour of the most prominent places around Odesa – including the Potemkin Steps, which create a fascinating illusion as you look out over the Black Sea, and Derybasivska Street, the bustling hub of the city. Immigrants from all over Europe were invited to make their fortune here when Odesa was founded in the late 18th century by Russia's Catherine the Great, meaning that Odesa is one of the most multicultural cities in Ukraine – you will feel vibe as you wander its eclectic streets!
After lunch, get ready for a mysterious and exciting tour to the Odesa Catacombs! These catacombs are a large (possibly the largest in the world!), winding labyrinth filled with hidden caves, with a long and fascinating history of hiding rebels, criminals and eccentrics from the authorities.
In the afternoon, take some time to explore, relax, or sunbathe by the sea…
In the evening, we recommend you try out one of the many seafood restaurants in Odesa - your guide can help you chose one! The rest of the evening is at your leisure.
