SECRETS AND SPLENDORS OF ODESSA’S MAIN SIGHTS TOUR
Odessa main sights tour is an exciting way to explore the city’s old town. Although it does sound like a tour you can do on your own, right? So, how do we make it a different experience? First off, we tell a story of the city and its people. We put faces and events to the landmarks. We share personal memories and opinions. Moreover, we take you to hidden gems, which are right in the historical quarter but are easy to miss.
Odessa boasts rich cultural heritage and grandeur architecture. We walk though the historic quarters, where main city landmarks are – the magnificent Opera and Ballet theater and classical Primorsky boulevard, the city’s iconic sight – the Potemkin Steps, the splendid Vorontsov and Tolstoy palaces. Hidden behind the facades of the main attractions are the little known facts and local stories. When told, they give a different dimension to each sight.
The Odessa main sights tour goes through old neighborhood. Its concealed streets, courtyards and over 200-year-old gardens are keyholes into Odessa’s past, harboring everything from traces of the city legends to a forgotten well, the only source of so precious back then drinking water in that area. It’s old, vintage Odessa, full of character and off the beaten track passageways that take you into the time of Odessa’s golden age.
Each sight in Odessa, even the most known one, has a little bit of secret history, which we uncover during this walk. And we share with you exciting stories hidden behind a splendid architectural façade of Odessa sights. And to hear the stories is to experience the city.
This is the “must do” walk, miss it and you’ve missed Odessa!
