There is no comparable... nowhere. Everything unique, perfect guide, unique Mood,...an absolute MUST
Thank you so much for your review! It was a pleasure to welcome you in Moldova. Hope you will enjoy your memories about trip a long time ahead.
Both wineries are definitely worth a visit. Milestii Mici makes a rather rustic and a bit of an unkempt impression. There you can walk through the aisles and see many cazas with wine bottles. For the wine tasting there were white, red and sweet wine with local appetizers. Live music violin and accordion. The room was nicely decorated. Cricova makes a much more groomed and professional impression. There you could see parts of the production shaking bottles by hand, there was a short film to watch in the underground cinema with a glass of fermented grape juice. The wine tasting included white wine, rosé, red wine and a sparkling wine with dry nibbles, including water. There are several tasting rooms in different styles, a chapel and a small museum. The wines at both wineries are of good quality and are good to drink. It's a shame they're rather unknown in western climes. If you only have time for a tour, I think you should choose Cricova.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us. Very best, Hi Moldova team
Excellent way to spend the day. Our guide (Veceaslav) was excellent! Great wines (much more than a tasting) and the snacks were also very generous.
Hello! Thank you for your kind review. Our team, wish you all the best)
This was my second tour with the Hi Moldova. The tour guide (Mtvarisa) was really nice and caring. Next to bringing me to the winery's she also made the trip fun. This tour made me definitely want to come back to Moldova.
Hi, Cherokee! Thank you for your kind review. Our team, wish you all the best) Mtvarisa
The tour was carried out by HIMOLDOVA-lucky, because the boss drove herself and it was a lot of fun to get introduced to Moldova by her. Both wineries are interesting in their own way and I don’t know which one to choose if I had to choose between them. The tours, the tasting, the quality of the wines and also the snacks were just good. And then again our guide Mtvarisa-a successful day
Hello, Peter! Thank you so much for your kind review. Hope to see you again in Moldova, we should celebrate our 18-th birthday together:) Kind regards, Mtvarisa
Good conversation with driver. Good wine. And good food to go with that. (Bit stingy with the food at Cricova, though. Asked for a little more, but was told that'd cost me $$$$$$$$$. So didn't bother.) Well organized. Good way to spend an otherwise probably boring Saturday. (Eat well at Milestii or take snack with you. Good wine but little affordable food at Cricova.)
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. All the best wishes for you. Hi Moldova Team
Awesome way to see two of the best wineries in moldova! SO much wine. Milestii mici also gives you a decent food pairing so you don’t have to worry about breakfast. Friendly and professional driver, overall well organized and enjoyable.
Driver is punctual and patient Professional Guides show us the wine culture of Moldova This is a good trip to recommend Law
Thank you for the kind review. Kind regards,
We had a fantastic private tour of Cricova and Milestii Mici Wineries. Both wineries are not to miss if you are visiting Chisinau. Our guide, Victor, was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. You get to see a lot in a relatively short period of time. You don't have as much time at Milestii Mici to try the wines versus at Cricova, so I would recommend getting a glass of wine and sitting outside before the tour begins. All in all it was a wonderful experience and
Thank you, dear for your kind review! We wish all the best! Mary Christmas!
My husband and I booked a private tour to Cricova and Milestii Mici Wineries. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel. It was an amazing trip into the underground wineries, of which were unlike anything we'd seen before. We had a very detailed and informative overview of Moldova, wine, and history. Victor was an amazing guide! I would absolutely recommend booking the tour.
Thank you for your kind review) Be our guests, Hi Moldova DMC
