Pro Karpaty is a team of guides, drivers and managers for whom the Carpathians are not just a job but home. We know where the best views hide, at what hour Lake Synevyr is at its quietest and which mountain inn cooks a truly authentic bogrács - and we share all of it on every trip.
Day trips to castles and thermal baths, multi-day Carpathian tours and coach journeys across Europe - for families, schools, companies and solo travellers. We take care of the route, transport, accommodation and every little detail - all that is left for you is the experience.

The journey from our first castle excursion to a licensed tour operator with its own team
We founded our travel agency in Uzhhorod. Our first day trips took in the castles and wineries of Transcarpathia.
We obtained our official tour operator licence (№605/2012) and launched multi-day tours across the Carpathians.
We added coach tours across Europe: Hungary, Slovakia and Romania - departing from Transcarpathia.
We moved online: bookings, signature itineraries and a personal manager for every group.
Our own team of guides, drivers and partners. Over 50 itineraries and daily excursions from Uzhhorod.
Our guides were born and live in Transcarpathia. They know the history, the legends and the best vantage points of every spot.
As a licensed tour operator we work without middlemen - you pay for the service, not a chain of commissions.
A modern vehicle fleet, insurance on request, a full set of documents and support at every stage of your route.
Since 2008 we have organised thousands of trips. We have over 500 positive reviews and welcome any scrutiny.
We never work to a template: we build our programmes so you see the real Transcarpathia, not just the tourist hotspots.
A personal manager is in touch every day. We will help you choose a route, make a booking and resolve any question.

“Хочу подякувати за екскурсію у Кошиці, Словаччина. Вагалася, чи їхати самостійно погуляти чи на екскурсію, абсолютно не пошкодувала! Дуже швидко пройшли кордон, о 8:30 вже були на місці. Екскурсовод провів нам найцікавішу екскурсію, порекомендував, куди можна зайти поїсти, де та які музеї можна відвідати у вільний час. Назад так само швидко пройшли кордон (не більше 1,5 години, у той час, як автобуси стоять по 6-7 годин). Комфортний Мерседес з кондиціонером та вай-фаєм. Дякую, обов'язково поїдемо з вами ще”
“Група була із 34 особи - і всі одноголосно були в захваті. Люди з інших груп підходили послухати гіда Юрія. Резервацію провели без жодної переплати. Рекомендуємо усім вашу організацію.”
“Ми залишилися максимально задоволеними спа туром! За два дні - ніби побували в іншій реальності. Наш екскурсовод Алла - обізнаний фахівець і чудова людина, а з водієм Василем було безпечно, комфортно та весело. Чудова командна робота!”
Pro Karpaty is a tourism company from Uzhhorod that has been organising trips through Ukraine's most beautiful corner since 2008. Day excursions to the castles, thermal baths and wineries of Transcarpathia, multi-day tours across the Carpathians and coach journeys through Europe - we tailor a route to suit any request and budget.
The easiest way to start is with day excursions around Transcarpathia - every week we take groups to the region's castles, thermal baths and wineries. If you prefer longer journeys, choose multi-day tours across the Carpathians and Transcarpathia or coach trips to Hungary, Slovakia and Romania. Up-to-date departure dates are gathered in the excursion schedule, and if you are in Mukachevo you can join a group on the way - there is a dedicated page of excursions from Mukachevo.
We work as a licensed tour operator without middlemen. That means fair prices, a full set of documents and responsibility for every stage of your trip - from the transfer to the final excursion.
Besides regular group departures, we organise corporate retreats in the Carpathians for teams, school trips with experienced guides and verified transport, turnkey VIP tours with a personal itinerary and transfers, as well as recovery tours - with thermal baths, spas and mountain quiet. Each format has its own manager who tailors the programme to your request and budget.
Over the years, tens of thousands of travellers have journeyed with us: families with children, school and university groups, companies and solo travellers. For each of them we design a programme that leaves you with memories rather than exhaustion.
Work in tourism - an agency, hotel, restaurant or attraction? We are open to cooperation: partnership formats and terms are collected in the for partners section.
Our team is made up of local guides, experienced drivers and managers who love their region and know how to share it. Tell us about the journey you dream of - and we will make it a reality.
