Descrizione
Explore Moldova on a private tour from Iasi. Visit the Capriana Monastery, discover Chisinau's history, and explore the underground streets of Milestii Mici, the world's largest wine cellar.
Begin your journey with a convenient hotel pickup in Iași and travel toward the Sculeni border crossing to enter Moldova. Your first stop is the peaceful Căpriana Monastery, one of the oldest and most significant religious sites in the country. Nestled among rolling forested hills, this monastic ensemble offers a serene look into the region's medieval history and spiritual traditions.
Continue to Chișinău, the vibrant capital of Moldova. Enjoy both a panoramic and a walking tour of the city center, discovering the main landmarks, wide boulevards, and lush green parks. The tour reflects the city's unique identity, shaped by its Soviet past and its modern European evolution.
After free time for lunch, head to the world-famous Mileștii Mici Winery. Listed in the Guinness World Records for housing the largest wine collection on Earth, this is an "underground city" with over 200 kilometers of galleries. Explore these vast subterranean streets—some of which you will navigate by vehicle—and learn about the centuries-old wine traditions of Moldova.
No visit is complete without a guided wine tasting. Sample local varieties and understand why Moldovan wines are gaining prestigious international recognition. See the "Golden Collection" where over 1.5 million bottles are stored in a perfect natural microclimate.
After this unique underground experience, relax on the return journey across the border to Iași, arriving in the evening with a deeper understanding of Moldova’s rich culture, history, and wine heritage.
