About this Event

Step into the heart of Edinburgh and uncover its cultural ties to Ukraine. On this intimate 2-hour walking tour, journey through shared heritage, memory, and migration with your guide Nataliya, a storyteller, community worker, and Kyiv-born refugee who now calls Scotland home.

From the shadow of Edinburgh Castle to Ukrainian community spaces and memorials, blending personal stories, heritage landmarks, tales of unexpected royal connections and shared moments over tea and traditional treats at a local café blending Scottish and Ukrainian flavours.

Through conversation, history, and hospitality, discover how two countries far apart are closer than they seem. Come curious, leave connected.
