Back in 1986 the Number 4 nuclear reactor at Chernobyl exploded with catastrophic consequences. Since then an Exclusion Zone has been put in place around the plant and nature has reclaimed the towns and vehicles left within this. On this exciting long weekend we will spend two full days and stay overnight in the Chernobyl area accompanied by an expert guide and our local Explore Leader. We spend the maximum amount of time permitted exploring as many places as we are allowed to go. We spend time in Ukraine's capital, Kiev, where we visit the Chernobyl Museum, the Lavra Historical and Cultural Reserve and Arsenalna, the deepest metro station in the world. Please note that in order to be permitted to enter the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone and to travel on this holiday you must be at least 18 years old.
