    Traveling with Irina Kravchenko is winning a lottery ticket! Anyone who is ever going to visit this eternal city, we advise you to get acquainted with it exclusively under the guidance of this talented guide. We visited Rome several times and it seemed to us that we had studied it thoroughly. Well, what else can you surprise us with? That's what we thought... How wrong we were! It turned out that our knowledge of the eternal city is only our illusions. After five days in Rome and five absolutely unforgettable tours of Rome and its suburbs with Irochka, we realized that we had never seen Rome. And he opened up to us from an unexpected side.
    There are different guides - there are knowledgeable and erudite people who do their job well and honestly. But they don't stay in memory over time. And there are stars, people, as they say, "kissed by the Lord God." And our Ira Kravchenko belongs to them. She is not just a highly qualified guide who knows the answer to any question. She is not only an art critic who has thoroughly studied everything she talks about. She is a sparkling energy, she is a solid positive, she is a huge inner world. She infected us with her love for Rome and now we are "sick" of this city forever.
    And her concern for tourists is a separate topic. She is a guide, a speaker, a teacher, and just a caring "mom". Our every wish was fulfilled with ease and virtuosity.
    Dear Irochka! We envy ourselves that we traveled with you. We miss you and are already planning to meet you again. Thank you for this celebration of life.

    I want to thank Irochka for the magical tour, which might not have taken place, Irochka helped us buy tickets, organized everything, in just a couple of hours and our meeting took place.
    We followed her advice, so we had a morning tour, this unforgettable sunrise on St. Peter's Square. Petra with pink-orange clouds, that's something!!!
    Then, over a cup of delicious coffee, we learned about the Sistine Chapel, which was very interesting and delicious, that I left my purse with documents and money on the chair, BUT Irochka sees everything
    And then our tour began. We listened to how they say in "zahleb", but I also did not stop watching our Ira, with what pleasure she led the tour, I can only imagine what she is like, but Irochka very clearly loves her job, her business, she is really a professional of her art, because there are so many secrets how much we learned Many people do not know , so we highly recommend it .
    I can tell you for sure, you will love the Vatican and you will want to return to Rome.
    It was very nice to know that we are from the same city, from our beloved Odessa.
    With great thanks from Vitaly and Tatiana!!! See you!!!

    We’ve been travelling a lot, but this was our first time in Rome/Vatican. I am so glad we chose Irina as our tour guide. When we just started the tour, I realised how massive the amount of art and information there was, and how lucky we are to have Irina with us. She took us to all the important and incredible places in the Vatican museums - we would be lost without her. She is very knowledgeable and it was a pleasure to listen to her because it wasn’t just facts you can read from Wikipedia, but a very interesting narrative about art and history that made our tour more memorable. Her expertise in the history of the Vatican, together with a great sense of humour, made our tour very special. It’s been few days since we visited the place, and the scenery is still popping up in my head and I keep thinking about what I saw and what it means.
    I also contacted her after our tour few times, and she was always happy to answer any questions we had.
    In general, she is a very pleasant and easy person to talk to, and I am very glad that we met her, and will definitely contact her for the future tours and recommend her to our friends and family.

    My husband and I don't really like art, or rather, we don't always understand it, but Irina made these 5 hours as easy and interesting as possible, for which I thank her very much! The Vatican surprised and impressed! This is one of the most beautiful places we've been! Irina gave the most professional advice about the tour, about the best time.
    As a result, we walked around the almost empty St. Peter's Cathedral, and did not crowd into the Vatican Museum, while having time to drink coffee in a cozy Italian courtyard. It was a magical morning with an incredible sunrise. Just thank you for these new emotions.

    Irina conducted two excursions, to the Vatican and a sightseeing tour! She is not only deeply immersed in the history of Rome and Italy, but is also an absolute ace of sightseeing logistics. On her advice, we started both excursions at 6:30 a.m., which helped to avoid wild queues and crowds on the street, as well as the sweltering heat at the end of July. She also did not follow the standard route of two-person guides - she always chose the most optimal route and interesting historical sites. As a result, in 10-12 hours in two days we looked at almost all the main sites of Rome, learned a lot of interesting details from its history and freed up time to travel to other cities in Italy. Special thanks for the gorgeous photos! I didn't even know that the iPhone has such functions :)

    Irina is a great fellow and a very professional person! Responsive and kind, at the same time very competent and immersed in the history and modernity of Rome! Of course, we recommend her excursions to everyone! We were lucky enough to see the very heart of Rome with her: the Forum, the Colosseum, the Palatine. And the Ira also provided assistance to us on other issues, even after a few days. A very responsive person! We recommend it to everyone!

    We are from Odessa and Irina gave us a morning tour of Rome. Our family would like to thank you.
    You talk about the city in one breath, professionally, and with such ease, which was very interesting to us.

    We saw Rome for the first time through your eyes. You were able to convey your love, the atmosphere, the positive that the Tour greatly impressed us and was remembered for a long time!
    You are an incredibly sweet and beautiful girl, with a kind and generous heart.

    We wish you a lot of happiness and all the best! Thanks a lot

    We are wholeheartedly glad to meet you, because you decorate the city with your humanity and kindness, unreal professionalism of your business, you live by it! We would like to meet with you again one day and talk and learn a lot more about Italy and Rome.

    The beautiful Irochka Kravchenko!
    Three happy days! Delight and admiration!
    Fantastic Rome, an open-air museum city where the centuries-old history and vibrant life of the European capital are intertwined. The Vatican! the most unusual state in the world, the smallest in size and one of the most influential in terms of spiritual power, with countless treasures of Italian and world art. The stunning Borghese Gallery, a treasure trove of masterpieces of painting and sculpture, impresses with its wealth and splendor.

    These were not excursions, but exciting performances where the scenery was the eternal city of Rome, the majestic and mysterious Vatican, the delightful halls of the Borghese Gallery, where Irina Kravchenko is the main director, director and leading actress! Irochka is a guide, of the highest level, a storehouse of exciting original stories, a fan of his craft, captivates, surprises, and gives his best 100%! From the very first minutes, Irochka bewitched us with her charisma, sense of humor and positive energy. Historical facts told in the format of fascinating stories about famous events and historical figures, hidden corners and interesting details, secrets that you would definitely miss walking around Rome and the Vatican on your own, bright and unforgettable impressions are all thanks to our wonderful guide Irina. A small sketch from a tour of the Vatican: In the Vatican, in the Courtyard of a Pine Cone, there is a bronze sculpture, a golden globe "Sphere in sphere". The sculpture consists of two spheres, one in the other, of which: The smaller one symbolizes the globe, and the larger one, which is 4 meters in diameter, represents the Universe.

    Irina unwound this machine for us to our surprise and delight, and to the surprise and delight of the people around who did not even suspect that it was spinning! "And yet it's spinning!" Irochka, we are overwhelmed with feelings of gratitude and delight from the time we spent with you!
