Dorosh Heritage Tours
and Ancestry Research

Your family tree has a story to tell.
We’ll help you discover it.

Since 2009, Dorosh Heritage Tours has connected our clients to authentic Ukrainian culture and helped them discover information on the lives of their ancestors to complete their family story. Whether you’re wanting to explore your own ancestry or you’re interested in experiencing Ukrainian culture and history first-hand, you’re in the right place.


Things we postpone
may never happen

As you know, a lot of things have been put on hold in Ukraine but we continue to work towards achieving the final victory and the end of death and destruction. A time once again when we will be able to travel, cross borders, and simply enjoy our lives in peace.

At Dorosh Heritage Tours in partnership with the Canadian Support Ukraine Foundation (www.CSUF.ca) we continue to work long hours to make this dream become a reality. However, it’s also important for us to live our lives NOW and as much as possible to find some sources of joy and apply positive thinking in everyday life. Our genealogy research branch keeps working and we do virtual tours. This is what a virtual reunion with your Ukrainian family and your heritage can be like during the war in Ukraine.

We specialize in genealogy research and customized tours in Ukraine, Poland, and Slovakia

I have been trying to research my grandfathers side of the family for many years with very little progress. This is until I contacted Andriy and his team, within the space of weeks I found out more than I found in many years of searching. I can’t thank them enough for the wonder research they’ve carried out, it’s been a smooth and enjoyable process from the outset and can’t wait to continue my journey with Dorosh heritage tours.

Hello, my name is Carol Cherich. My paternal grandmother, Ewa Kit was born in Ukraine in 1894 and migrated to USA in 1913 and never returned to her homeland. Between 1920'a until the Berlin wall went up, she had contact with relatives, but then lost contact during the Soviet oppression and died in 1980 so there was no longer any family contact. Finally in 2023, after many years of doing research, I came across Dorosh genealogy services and was able to find my grandmothers relatives in Ukraine who have been living in the same community for over 100 years. I was also able to receive primary documentation on my ancestors, baptisms, marriages, children and a local family cemetery. I also requested a video of my ancestor's homeland and interview Ivan, a second cousin. On 3/2/2024, one day before my birthday, I received a 45-minute video of one of my relatives, Ivan, a second cousin who showed me pictures of the family, gave us a tour of the home he now lived in as well as the home my grandmother grew up in next door, a tour of the local community and family cemetery. My cousin Ivan has a sister (Iryna) who has 2 sons, one in LVIV, and another son lives in Florida. Within 36 hours, the son in LVIV, Andrii reached out to me via Facebook and email and connected me to his brother in Florida. Both sons connected me to their mother, Iryna who now lives in Barcelona Spain. Iryna will be visiting Florida, and I will go there to finally meet her, the son and his children. I am truly grateful for the time Andrii and his wife helped me with the genealogy research and best of all was the video to see live my relatives so far away from Tennessee. My grandmother must be smiling above to know our family has come full circle. This has been a real blessing. Sincerely, Carol Cherich,

I have had the most professional and exciting experience with Dorosh Tours. I wanted to research my maternal line in Ukraine. I didn't have much information to go on and thought it would be very difficult and maybe impossible to learn about this side of my family. Dorosh /Olia really left no stone unturned and I was so happy with my research reports they provided. I now have names,dates and places to fill in all previous empty blanks in my family tree. I found the whole experience wonderful, even the price. I highly recommend their services. Wendy
