a beautiful day with a beautiful experience in this magnificent place it is worth doing this tour
We really enjoyed the tour with Natalia, she was so friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. It was a good walk through the city and we learned a lot! She also made sure to point out some local suggestions, which ended up being great!! We were a little disappointed in the winery, as the experience felt rushed and not very personable- but this was more the fault of the winery and not this tour. We were running to the airport right after our tour, and we are so grateful that our driver was nice enough to drop us off there instead of back at our hotel. It made everything so much easier.
Really enjoyed this tour with Elenora. She was well informed and provided interesting information about Chisinau. She also went above and beyond by helping us make dinner reservations. The tour was well organized, starting with a walking tour of Chisinau that provided an overview of the city and the history of Moldova followed by the tour of the largest wine cellar in the world.
The monastery was beautiful & full of religious /cultural history. Winery tour was unique, worth the money, large wine pours during tasting & tasty charcuterie plate. But the best part for me was talking to guide/driver about his country. Highlight of my trip in Moldova!
Oleg our guide, was very good and funny. He knew a lot of interesting things about the place and the country in general. The trip was well organised and we enjoyed everything. We would recommend this tour to others.
Oleg was absolutely amazing in setting up and guiding this tour. He is incredibly knowledgeable and shared the deep and complicated history of this country in a compelling and understandable way. Thank you Oleg!
