All Chisinau Tours & Excursions in 2026

Very nice trip. Highly recommend. Your driver may not speak English but he is not your tour guide. When you get to the city center, am English speaking guide will meet you. She was great. Lunch was at a location in the community. Very nice. $20 USD. Had a wonderful day

Big thank you to Slava. He was a very informative and funny guide! Helping us along the way with translation and also giving us a lot of information. Enjoyed the scenic drive and our lunch! It was so good! The winery tour was interesting! The underground tunnels span a distance of 120km! Wines were very good!! Overall I enjoyed myself a lot, met very nice tour mates on the group, there were 5 of us and it was very nice chatting with them. Highly recommended as pick up was on time, very organised and though we got caught in traffic, it was still very nice enjoyable!

Arthur is an excellent guide for this walking tour. He asked us what we wanted to see and then he took us to many interesting places in the city. He provides huge amounts of very interesting information. The 3 hour tour went by very quickly and we were not tired from walking all that time. He is an excellent guide.

Perhaps a bit expensive, but provided excellent private car to the winery, and the tour was incredible. We were guided by the amazing Valeria, she was entertaining and clearly knew her stuff. Afterwards, we had a great wine tasting, live music playing for each of our home countries. Truly a unique, interesting experience.

A Highly Professional and Well-Organized Tour We were very pleased with how well organized the entire tour was. Our guide, Victor, had extensive knowledge of the history and current issues of both Moldova and Transnistria, and he explained everything in a clear and accessible way. His time management was also excellent. The original itinerary included a visit to Bender Fortress in the afternoon, but Victor had found out in advance that an event would be taking place there and that an afternoon visit would therefore not be possible. He adjusted the schedule accordingly. Thanks to his professionalism and preparation, we avoided a situation in which we might otherwise have missed the fortress entirely. Every part of the tour was carefully planned, including the time set aside to exchange money before entering Transnistria. The schedule throughout the day was managed very efficiently. I had actually considered visiting Transnistria independently without joining a tour. Had I done so, I would certainly have spent much more time getting around and would probably not have been able to see all the major sights in Bender and Tiraspol. I also would have missed the stories and historical context behind many places that I might otherwise have simply passed by without noticing their significance. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of Transnistria while making the most efficient use of their time.

A special day to discover the region of Transnistria: welcoming people, Soviet architecture, huge statue of Lenin, a special lunch “back in USSR”, a unique bookstore with all russian memorabilia and Cyrillic characters everywhere….a unique experience with our guide, Ekaterina, who was very nice and informative. Highly recommended!

10/10 Experience! The attractions were fascinating and our guide went absolutely above and beyond. Our guide Vadim is an expert historian who gave us detailed explanations of each planned attraction plus everything else we passed. He added tasteful humor and insightful details all throughout, plus answered all the extra questions we had. Unfortunately, the museum was closed (despite the website showing otherwise), but our guide still shared its story and even took us to another similar museum to make up for it. This tour was truly fascinating, as we got to know so much about the Gagauz history and culture. The food was amazing and the atmosphere at the Sofrasi restaurant was great, as we even saw a traditional wedding. It cannot be overstated how above and beyond Vadim went to make the experience special and worthwhile. This tour is perfect for anyone who appreciates culture, history and traditional customs.

A really good tour to beautiful and peaceful locations. Our guide was excellent and knowledgeable. The monastery was highlight. Such stunning surroundings. This is a wonderful way to explore Moldova outside of the capital. A really real ‘must’ for including, in any visit to Chisinau.
