Staying with a Hutsul family

We know that you work a lot and your work is a potential source of significant stress. It’s time for you to relax and forget about your problems for at least a few days with our “do nothing” tour. We’ll help you reboot both body and soul.

Why to relax in the Ukrainian Carpathians?

This is a new unique destination: unique people with their culture, pristine nature, very safe, no hordes of tourists, clean air … and silence. Just what you need to relax and rewind.

If you need company, we’ll provide the necessary support. If you just want to stay alone, we’ll arrange everything you need (a comfortable bed, the best local cuisine, a hot shower…) Or if what you prefer is a tent somewhere in the mountains or next to the river, we’ll arrange that too. Whatever you wish without a problem!

We are able to take you to places where phones and emails will not bother you, and during our “do nothing” tour in the Carpathians, you can simply enjoy the peace and quiet of nature: the sounds of the mountain river, of cows in a distant meadow, rain and snowfall. Find peace and dream about the ways things used to be.

Our “do nothing” tour does not offer 5* hotels. We know you can find luxury at home. What we offer is the opportunity to go back in time and escape modern life, albeit with hot showers and clean accommodation.

As a non-comprehensive list of some of the things you can do:

• spend couple of days with a local Hutsul family in a remote Carpathian village called Shybene
• river trout fishing
• spend time high in the mountains with shepherds, where you’ll be treated like a brother
• do stargazing or meet sunset
• horse riding
• pick mushroom and berries
• enjoy delicious home cooked meals

If you come with your family, there are nice things to explore. We can visit the local family engaged in beekeeping and see how it works, go to blacksmith who makes bells for cows etc. Your kids are gonna love it!

Videos from a similar trip

Some say, seeing is believing. In May 2021, Eva zu Beck, an adventure traveller, a YouTube travel vlogger, and a Travel TV host shoot a video about the place where we offer you to spend your time in a Hutsul family.

We’re very flexible. If you decide to change the atmosphere and want to go to a nightclub, we can arrange it. Want some extreme activities – ATVs, jeeping, paragliding? No problem. Otherwise, why not simply read a book, listen to the river or … do nothing.

You are in safe hands.

We organise all necessary logistics before you arrive and will meet you at the airport with a car to take you to the Carpathians. Our guide/interpreter/driver will accompany you (if necessary) every day of your stay, with pleasure, allowing you to make the most of your stay. There are no language problems, no stupid questions, no security problems and inconvenient situations. Only complete and total relaxation.

Price and booking

This tour does not have a fixed price. The cost depends on how many nights do you plan to spend in the family, what additional activities would you like to have, will you need a guide, transportation etc.
