Moldova Tours


You will get a great opportunity to discover Soviet heritage of Transnistria - a country that doesn't exist. Explore Communist era buildings, statues of Lenin, memorials and many Soviet monuments.


Tighina Fortress



During the tour in Transnistria, you'll feel like we had travelled back in time to the Soviet Union. You are going to experience visits to soviet-themed attractions and museums, showcasing relics of the Soviet Union, such as statues of Lenin, soviet flags, and other remnants of the soviet era.

The central locations on this tour to explore are Bender and Tiraspol, two biggest cities in Transnistria.

During the visit of Tiraspol travellers can explore its streets lined with Soviet-era architecture, visit monuments like the Suvorov Monument and Tank Monument, beautiful local parks, local food market and experience the local culture.
