What's not to love about Moldova? - 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.

Great day in Chisinau and Cricova - Nicolai was an excellent guide. He's knowledgeable, personable, and his English is spot-on. He customized the tour based on our interests, and even helped us with finding souvenirs. The visit to Cricova winery was very interesting and must enjoyable. Our guide at the winery, Victoria, also some excellent English and was very engaging. This tour was well worth the time and money. Highly recommend.

Best city tour ever. Nice wine toue - Elana is passionate about the city and it shows in her knowledge and enthusiasm. Cricova Winery also was interesting and great to try new wines.
