Chisinau Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

The churches we visited were beautiful, and not somewhere we could see independently. To top it all of the Corcova wine experience was fun! Only negative comment is that hotel pick up is deceiving - you aren’t picked up from your specific hotel, but need to go a set one to start the trip. Natalia was an absolutely fantastic guide - and the highlight of my trip to Moldova!

A wonderful day to tour monasteries and wineries! If you only have a few hours or days in Moldova, this would be a great and easy day trip!

This was a very in-depth and detailed tour that covers the history and present of Transnistria very well. Lilya was a 12/10 guide and gave us great memories!

Arthur was very knowledgeable and informative . Just the right balance of interesting historical chat about the sites we went to and Moldovan life in general

Victor clearly is a learned and cultured man.His knowledge about politics / economy / history is detailed and for a tour like this one it is imports to have the details!Wherever he may be interpreted as impartial he points this out and gives you the other side of the debate.My only recommendation would be perhaps to split for lunch and regroup. But I know this opinion was not universally or indeed even a minority view.Overall a good trip!

Ecaterina was an excellent guide! It felt less like a 'tour' and more like a local friend showing you around. She was very knowledge about all the locations and history, and had a good sense of humour. She was able to customise our tour to fit our schedule and we aboslutely love the experience, something very unique!

Had a fantastic day visiting Transnistria and Cricova. Igor was a great guide and driver. Interesting history and culture, 100% recommend this tour while visiting Chisnau.

We really enjoyed our tour with our guide Valerii. Even though it was raining, the experience was wonderful – and seeing a rainbow over the vineyards made it truly special. The visit to the "Martha and Mary" Monastery was peaceful and inspiring, and the Purcari Winery tour gave us a great insight into Moldova’s winemaking tradition.

Wonderful trip and fantastic guide Natalia. Thanks to her we fell in love with Transnistria and Moldova. She showed us many interesting places and gave us valuable advice for the next days of our stay.

An unforgettable experience! Adrenaline at its peak, breathtaking landscapes, and a sense of freedom that’s hard to put into words! The buggy tour was truly spectacular – challenging trails, wild nature, and moments full of energy and excitement.🔥After the adventure, the traditional food tasted absolutely amazing – like a well-deserved reward. Everything was perfectly organized, and the team was professional and friendly.I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to feel life at its fullest!💥

Everything was excellent from start to finish. Our guide was amazing — patient, clear, and always made sure we knew how to drive and what to expect on the trail. We chose the Molovata tour and were absolutely stunned by the beauty of the Dniester River.The food was delicious — traditional Moldovan dishes like plăcinte and zeamă made the experience even more authentic. The buggies were in great condition, no issues at all, and we definitely got our dose of pure adrenaline. Highly recommend to anyone looking for adventure in Moldova

The tour was very wonderful. The guide presented everything well and it was fascinating to learn all about it. It was very convenient that hotel pick up was provided; hospitality was very high-level. My mom and sister who came with me enjoyed it very much too, made for a good family outing.

Had a great day with Ecaterina, very knowledgeable, very nice and funny lady. The tour itself was what I had expected it to be, so I have no complaints and would recommend this tour..

非常有趣的行程，導遊很友善！推薦！Spa很舒服！酒莊很好逛，適合愛酒人士！如果你來摩爾多瓦很建議參加此行程喔！highly recommended! the tour guide is very friendly and I love the spa and winery tour

Great experience. My guide was from Soroca and was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Got all I wanted out of the trip.

I'm 6 weeks late in finally writing this review, but it must be said: Wow! What a heartfelt experience this was, with Laurentia Z., my tour guide operating through HiMoldova. For a few separate day-trips that proved unforgettable, I'm glad I made the decision to visit the beautiful, humble country of Moldova when I did, and was able to connect with Laurentia of all people. She's truly a wonderful, motherly woman, who showed me more love than my own family members ever have, ha. She showed me around Chisinau, and surrounding areas, and even managed to help me reconnect with a former Moldovan-Ukrainian girlfriend and her family members. Each conversation was natural and meaningful, and I was treated as a friend, or even a son, rather than a customer. There's so much more to Moldova than a visitor could imagine, and I can't think of a better way to explore the country's historical and natural attractions, than with Laurentia. I now have a newfound appreciation for the special people surviving in this part of the world, from the local Moldovans to the Ukrainian refugees, and they've truly earned my respect. The sights are impressionable, the food and wine spectacular, and I'd be crazy to not recommend taking this trip of a lifetime, to anyone considering going. Show Moldova some love! They deserve it.
