This tour will take you through the most exciting part of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone - the nuclear power plant itself! Our friendly non-virtual, real and live guide (made out of flesh and bones as every one of us) will reveal all the secrets and storyline of the worst (man-made) nuclear catastrophe. You’ll walk together (of course, from the safety of your living room) around the reactors #5 and #6 which were left unfinished, the Memorial alley dedicated to the victims of the accident and of course - through the real Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. You’ll have the chance to explore how the power plant operates today, how many people do still work there today (yes, there’s still people working!), where they eat (oh yes, there’s a functional canteen) and walk around the control room, and the so-called golden corridor which separates the power plant block #4 and block #3. There’s a lot more, but we won’t spoil all the surprises on this tour. So hurry up and book your virtual visit!

      Scary, troubling.
      The tour leaves a strong, if depressive, impression. The agency seems to be exclusively staffed by ladies (drivers excepted), who know their stuff. Despite them having operated the tours many times over, they manage to convey strength and attentiveness during the well balanced tour. On the journey to Cernobyl, a 50' introduction movies prepares well to what expects the visitor. Duga radar, reactors site, ghost town of Pripyat, all is well extend and never the guide did look at her watch to make us feel to hurry up. Replying indepth to all and even blunt questions openly, she always remained factual and informative. Thank you CernobylX for a job well done.

      A very great experience !
      We really enjoyed the two day tour of Chernobyl. We wanted to do a private tour because I was very interested in seeing and learning about things far from the tourist circuit ... and, the truth is, it was very worth it. Everything is very well organized and our guide (Lara) attended to all our requests about the places that we were most interested in seeing and was very patient with our level of English, which is not too academic ... Everything was very well organized from the beginning to the end ... The trip, the meals, the breakfast, the hotel ... And the guide knows very well all the intricacies of the area. We left feeling that it had been a great experience and a great investment. Thank you Lara and thank you ChernobylWel.com

      Unforgettable day in Chernobyl
      We went on a one day tour of Chernobyl and Pripyat. The organizing was top notch, it was very punctual. Our guide was cute, friendly and informative. Our group was pretty small and I didn't feel we are rushed, we had time to take our pictures and also get information about the past. It was just sad we had to leave pretty early as it was getting dark at 4pm. However, I will definitely be back to Chernobyl with a 2 or maybe even more days tour and I will definitely choose Chernobyl X. They are passionate professionals. Thanks for making my dream come true by visiting Chernobyl.🤗

      1 Day Chernobyl and Pripyat Tour
      Really enjoyed the Chernobyl and Pripyat tour. I liked it was a small group as we were able to get round together quickly and ask more questions. The lady who was guiding us round was very friendly and informative. It’s a shame you can’t go into the building with the swimming pool but that’s not the tour company’s fault. Definitely recommend ☺️👍🏽

      Private 2 day Tour, duga radar, Pripyat and powerplant
      We had an amazing private 2 day Tour. Our guide, Maryna, was very helpful throughout the whole tour and had a lot of knowledge about the history and current situation about the whole area. She showed us all of our desired destination and the private tour was very flexible and accounted all our wishes. We stayed at the Desiatka hotel. All in all it was a great experience! We were really pleasantly surprised about the comfort and especially the quality of the food! There was even free wifi in the hotel. There were always enough safety measures in place. We all had dosimeter and Geiger counter. The many radiation level measurements throughout the day made the whole experience really comfortable. Our guide was always very helpful and even helped with photographs, which made for some very amazing pictures. The drive from our hotel to the zone and from destination to destination, was really comfortable thanks to our driver. There were zero waiting times thanks to our private tour. Also a big plus of the private tour was the ability to basically stop everywhere and whenever we wanted. Which was really handy because of the many wild animals. On the second day we booked the power plant tour! It was a very interesting tour, with lots of interesting photo spots. The food at the cafeteria was good and there were even vegetarian options. A little tip, if you like dogs, definitely take some kind of treats into the zone. There are lots of really friendly dogs. All in all it was a once in a lifetime opportunity! Again a big thanks to our guide Maryna and our driver Aleks for this wonderful experience!

      Time and Money well spent
      Great company. I've been on 4 or 5 tours with Chernobyl wel.com (now Chernobyl X) over the past 4 years. The guides and transportation from them have always been on point. There haven't been any negatives associated with them. Communication was easy. Lara and Alexey were right on time in front of our apartment to pick us up for our 2 day private control room tour.

      Unforgettable Flashback to soviet time with Chernobylx
      I used Chernobylx to explore the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone for two consecutive days, in a private tour. My tour guide was Lara. She was very knowledgeable, was very punctual and went for the extra mile to make my journey an unforgettable one. Additionally I did the powerplant tour (full day) and the kalashnikov tour which made my stay in Kiev extra special. I usually travel solo, as tours tend to lose you precious time (due to obligatory lunches etc), but was far from disappointed by Chernobylx, they're a very professional and reliable organisation. I have already decided to visit the private missile base with chernobylx on a future occassion and visit the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazachstan (one of their unique offerings).

      Private day tour with ChNPP
      I did the 1 day tour form Kiev which included the ChNPP because, let's face it, there is no point only going around the empty city. As there weren't other people, I had to book tje private tour which is very expensive. I was picked up at the hotel right before 7am and didn't come back until 7:30pm, so it was a long day. The majority of the tour is the Power Plant, you spend 5-6 hours there, including lunch at the canteen where the employees also go. As I finished with the PP tour at 4pm, there wasn't a lot of time to go around Chernobyl or other places, so the second part had to be rushed. We managed to see a lot of other places before it became dark at least, but, unlike others, I didn't go inside any building because the guide said it is illegal to do so. Although everyone else does it. The ChNPP was fantastic and the guide (who is an employee fo the PP) was really, really good. You even get to change in special clothes and wear a mask to go into the most contaminated reas. I had 3 dosemeters the whole time and, it seems, the dose of radiation at the end of the whole tour was really low. We even got to see the reactor pumps up close and we got to walk on the reactor hall. I would say there is no point goign into te exclusion zone without going inside the power plant as well. Yes, you go into the control room 4 (with masks and gloves on) which is the room where the accident happened in 1986. There are a lot of radiation checks (3 after the PP, and 2 more before going home) and a LOT of paperwork for the power plant employee and also A LOT of checks, cinluding being processed in and out of the PP which, itself, is a long process. It was only 9 of us (you join a separate group) and still took a while to go through all those checks, so I can't imagine going there with more people. Overall an amazing experience at the ChNPP and highly recommended.

      Amazing experience!
      I strongly recommend the ChernobylX tours. I booked two days because all the blogs I read, suggested the 2 days tour as the experience will be more complete and probably this is not a trip that you will do frequently, so 2 days is a better option. We were in 6 tourists, a driver and the tour guide, however I think this number can increase depends on the season. The tour started in Kiev, about 2 hour long to nuclear zone check point, where during this route we watch a documentary, similar to discovery channel documentaries. About ChernobylX, I had only good impressions. They were very kind and give attention to all the emails I sent asking about the tour. They pay attetion to all details that can improve your experience. The tour covered all the famoust spot. The car is safe and clean. The food is delicious (Ukrainian food, but you can inform any restriction you have. It includes the lunch, dinner, breakfast and 2nd day lunch). The hotel we stayed was also very good (I think there are not many hotels option to stay there). And finally, I would like to congrats our tour guide called Lara, she let us confortable to appreciate the points in our time, carried about our safety, showed knowledge about the history and was really very nice and kind to us all the time. To conclude, to visit Chernobyl/Pripyat is an amazing experience and definetly ChernobylX Tour contributed to it.

      Amazing private tour with Nataly
      My experience with CHERNOBYLwel.come was fantastic. I had decided to go on a solo tour because I had been to Chernobyl once before, and I wanted to focus my second visit on specific areas and avoid returning to other ones. In addition, I wanted to have ample time to fly my drone during the visit. The team responded quickly to all my questions, did all the paperwork so I would be able to fly my drone, and connected me with a guide (Nataly). They set up a Zoom call with her so I could discuss what I wanted to do during my visit. Nataly gave me precise information on where I would be able to fly my drone, and what sites I could see from each location. She also told me which buildings I would be able to see from the outside only vs. those were it was possible to go inside. On the day of the tour, Nataly and the driver picked me up from my hotel. The vehicle, a Mercedes minivan, was very comfortable to ride in. Nataly gave me some great general information about Chernobyl and Pripyat during the trip, and she explained what would happen at each checkpoint. Because it was a solo tour, the process for going through the checkpoints was fast. We spent 30 minutes at the Shipyard (one of the sites I had picked to fly my drone), and then headed to the Duga Radar, a truly amazing site where we spent one hour. Nataly had some awesome stories about Duga and I got some fantastic drone shots. We spent the rest of the day in Pripyat, with the first few hours dedicated to flying my drone by the Ferris Wheel. When I was done flying, Nataly took me on foot to several sites, including the supermarket, hotel, movie theater and café. She also took me to a few sites that were unexpected, which was great: a vehicle graveyard and a former day-care center with some really eerie rooms. What made the trip so special was that Nataly knows Pripyat inside and out, and it's obvious she's passionate about the history and exploration of the sites. She can take you to locations off the usual beaten path and give you a unique experience. I would highly recommend a solo tour with CHERNOBYLwel.come and specifically with Nataly as your guide - you won't be disappointed!
