It was a brilliant day. The experience was quite unique.
I felt safe the whole time. We got to see interesting monuments and also learn about the backgrounds of things. I found out why people think the way they do in the country.

What to Expect

The unique tour to A country that doesn’t exist in Transnistria The capital of the Soviet Union country Tiraspol.

Transnistria is a strip of land between Moldova and Ukraine. Theoretically, it belongs to Moldova, as it is not recognized by any state, but in fact, it has been a de facto independent country since 1990, with its own government, army, police, currency, flag, and even vehicle registration plates.

During the “Brandy Tour,” we visit the Tiraspol Distillery “KVINT”

A very nice trip. I heard a lot of stories, legends, interesting informations, tips, history of the regions etc. Transport car was very convenient, pickup directly from hotel, air condition working fine. Back in time trip was fulfilled also with classical food. It was really good day full of new good sensations. Strongly recommended.
