ChernobylX

Leisure Destination Management Company in Ukraine

This journey started as your journey did, back in 2008. I was just a tourist, a number, a statistic. Visiting the Chernobyl zone for 2 days was a life-changing experience for me. And it was not as easy as it sounds. My fear was slightly greater than the initial excitement – and for my protection, I packed some extra stuff: a respirator and a lead-covered jockey strap. I have to laugh when I mention this to people.

From the moment I got out of the tourist-packed bus in the ghost town of Pripyat, smelled the winter breeze, and felt the atmosphere, I immediately told myself that I need to get back here again and again and again. Establishing a specialized Chernobyl tour company was a dream come true – in order for me to continue to visit the zone and to show its true beauty, untold stories, and unseen legacy to others.
