Description
Discover Odessa’s hidden world during the virtual walk through the eery and chilling network of underground tunnels beneath the city. The longest in Europe, Odessa’s Catacombs are nothing like the famous Catacombs of Paris and Rome. You won’t see remains of people, stacks of bones or hidden pathways to basilicas. The history that’s hidden in this 1500 miles (2500 kilometers) gigantic multi-layer labyrinth is different, but very intriguing. How did these tunnels appear? Why did they become home to smugglers throughout the 19th century and World War ll partisans in the 20th century? What’s in there now? We uncover the fascinating history of Odessa’s Catacombs during a virtual walk through the underground tunnels. The underground tunnels are located 8 to 15 meters 24 to 45 feet underground, hence there’s no signal there. Olga will do this live stream tour with several prerecorded videos that she has made specially for this tour. Moreover, the videos will demonstrate how these tunnels have been turned into the bomb shelters. Join Olga to explore fascinating history of Odessa’s underground world.

Professional Tour Guide
Olga B.
I'm Olga from Odessa, I spent a lot of time abroad. I have an MBA in the USA - previously worked in international marketing in California, London and Moscow. I switched to the tourism industry in 2011 and founded the Odessa Walks travel agency in my hometown Odessa. Due to the pandemic, I have created virtual live streaming programs starting in 2020 that share the beauty of my history-rich hometown to people from all over the world. In September 2022 I moved to Berlin and Krakow due to the war. While I continue to do "home tours" of Odessa, I started by creating live cultural and historical tours of Berlin and Krakow.
