We are considering booking a tour with Ukraine tours. Have other people used this company and have been pleased with the service?
We are doing a 2 day Kiev tour and then down to Yalta, Crimea area on the overnight train with 3 days in the area.

Not sure what company you are talking about, how about a link?

I used this company for the train from Simferapol to Odessa, and my Odessa hotel: http://www.travel-2-ukraine.com/

And this company for hotels in the Crimea: http://www.blacksea-crimea.com/

I was satisfied with both of them, but that was in 2006, when the hotels I wanted had no English on their websites. Maybe things have improved since then. I booked for Kolomiya and Lviv on the web myself.

The web site is /ukraine-tours.com/tours/tours
I usually do my own planning so this is a bit different for us .
It is at the beginning of May so I am getting down to the crunch.
Thanks

I toured Ukraine for 3 weeks 3 years ago but have not heard of this Tour Compnay.

it does not mean they are not good.

There are quite a few Tour/Travel Companies doing Ukraine tour both from USA and Canada.

yes you are down to the crunch.!

Any special reason you're considering a tour? Ukraine isn't the kind of place where all the hotels are likely to be full. Well, maybe Yalta in the middle of summer.

Can't tell too much from the website, except that the cheap tour is awfully cheap! Are they on tripadvisor?

Note - be careful about language. Russian in the Crimea and the east, Ukrainian in the west. Cyrillic alphabet everywhere - it's a big help to learn the alphabet.
