Tickets
There are no tickets included in this trip. Take a look at our package that includes access to a ticket for the Sweden v England game.
Flights and transfers
You’ll fly out from London Gatwick to Kyiv on the day before the match on a flight chartered specially for England fans. You’ll get transfers to and from the airport, and stadium transfers on match day. Your return flight departs Kyiv to return to London the day after the match.
Two nights accommodation
You’ll stay at the 3★ Hotel Kozatskiy which is superbly located in the centre of Kyiv meaning you can explore the sights and sounds of everything Kyiv has to offer. You’ll share the hotel with other England fans, so the whole place should have a real party atmosphere and you’ll be completely caught up in the UEFA EURO 2012™ buzz.
Extras for England supporters
Because we’re England’s licensed tour operator for UEFA EURO 2012™, we’re hoping to arrange some nice matchday extras for England supporters that travel with us. We’ll let you know more when all the details are finalised.
Exclusive game insights from Prozone
One of these little extras will be a ‘match briefing’ from the world’s leading football performance analysis specialists, Prozone. Before the match you’ll get an insight into the world of performance analysis and how both teams stack up ahead of the big game later that day. It should be an amazing experience, as Prozone will be sharing the kind of performance data usually reserved for professional dressing rooms. Attending these sessions is open exclusively to any Thomson Sport customer who buys this package.
Also included

Accommodation
3★ Hotel Kozatskiy
You'll stay the night before the match and the night of the match, enjoying breakfast each morning.
Situated in the heart of downtown Kyiv on Independence Square, this hotel is situated in a great location, less that a minute away from the central street of Kyiv and just 5-10 minutes away from other major tourist sites - St. Sophia Cathedral, St. Michael’s Golden-Domed Monastery, St. Andrew’s Church and Andriyivskyy Descent. The hotel features 130 comfortable and modern rooms, all of which offer private bathrooms, and some provide magnificent views across Independence Square.
The hotel also boasts Wi-Fi in the lobby bar and reception and a restaurant and Café overlooking the skyline of Kyiv. You're so close to the entertainment district, shopping centres and historical places of interest
A little reminder...
Whilst we have secured a well located 3★ hotel in Kyiv, it would be remiss of us not to remind you that accommodation options in Kyiv are limited, especially around a major football tournament. Please also remember that Ukraine is likely to provide a slightly different star rating system to that of the UK. We're confident however that the Hotel Kozatskiy will provide a great base for enjoying all the football action.
