Tours to Transnistria
from Chisinau every weekend
Transnistria is the only region in Europe that still carries a Soviet coat of arms, a hammer and sickle on its flag, and an authentic atmosphere of the last century. Lenin monuments, mosaics on factories and cinemas, and museums of labor and battle glory make it a unique destination for lovers of Soviet aesthetics and history.
One-day themed excursions let you see the House of Soviets, Soviet-era mosaics in Tiraspol and Bendery, and one of the region's Soviet-era factories.
For full immersion, we recommend the Grand Soviet Tour: Bendery, Tiraspol, Kitskany and Rybnitsa β 32 stops, museums, a Soviet canteen and a night at a Soviet-style guesthouse.
Our local guides will decode the symbolism of the mosaics, tell you about everyday Soviet life, and take you through the region's places of battle and labor glory.
The region is suitable for themed, historical and industrial tourism β and for anyone who wants to see the living Soviet era firsthand.
