It's a place detached from the world where time has stopped. - The sovjet cantine and the great food was the best part of the day and if there is anything you might need during the day you will probably find it at the Green Market Center. It has everything.

It’s interesting and fun. Very good guide. - It is not a cheap excursion, but if you want to know all about this country that doesn’t excist, it is worth it. My guide was Lilia. She herself was born in Transnistrië, experienced there the war between Moldova en Transnistria. She now lives in Chisinau. She knew all about the past en present of both countries. She is very kind and helpfull. Lilia will adjust the tour if you ask and takes your wishes into acount.
Transnistria is e weird country. As if you travel back in time. Lenin is everywhere. But it is also a modern country. This Soviet way of life is their principle, but I have the impression that they are very well aware that it is their USP.
We went to an impressive old fortress in the city of Bender, and walked through the center of the capital Tiraspol. And we had dinner in a soviet style restaurant. Lilia was our guide and driver. Thanks to her I had a very nice day.

Interesting experience of a country that not exist! - I can highly recommend this tour! My friend and I were accompanied by two lovely young ladies that made it feel like we were on a private trip with friends and not a tour. Even if we got a lot of information about the history and monuments the highlights were to observe the daily life. Lunch at a restaurant Sovjet style, visit the market and talk to people.

Unforgettable - On our first time in Moldova, Igor was on time picking us up from the hotel & made our way to the self-declared republic of Transitia, a country within a country. The tour was excellent and we had a perfect experience of visiting a classless society for the first time, it was like going back in time to the soviet union days. After Transitia, we went with lilia to the monasteries of old orhei, and it was beautiful, along with the traditional village & hilltop views, we made a lovely experience on our first trip as a couple.
With gratitude, Lou & Natalia
