5-star trip!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - We were lucky enough to visit Cricova on the day of the Mustfest. It was a really great trip that we can absolutely recommend.
Our guide Mtvarisa was very friendly and super organized. We felt completely at ease.
The tour itself was very informative and impressive. The Mustfest rounded the whole thing off.
We would definitely recommend the tour. An absolute must if you are in Chișinău for a few days.
All in all: Definitely 5 stars!!!

Great wine & great experience. - Our guide/driver Alex picked us up from the hotel and was extremely friendly and spoke great English. He made sure we got onto the tour at the winery and then took us back to the hotel afterwards. The winery tour was great - very informative and fun, and the wines were great. It was a fabulous way to spend our last day in Moldova. We were able to book only a day ahead, and they had openings on a Sunday. Highly recommend.

Wine cave - This is absolutely a don’t miss adventure whenever near. It’s even worth a trip specifically for this experience. A trolly takes you through the cave with a guide after and introduction video, talk and tasting. Then guests are taken to a lovely room for food and wine. The entire experience is worth much more than the price. The wine is very good as are the products offered for sale at a very inexpensive price. I will go again whenever I am anywhere near.

Great service & timeframe - Loved that this tour picked me up from my hotel at 1pm and drove me to the winery where I joined three other couples from this same company. We then did the full tour with a Cricova guide, ending with a fun tasting with a small side of snacks. The drivers were super patient and waited for us to wrap up around 5 or 6pm, then dropped us all off at our desired end location. Helps that the wine and bubbly was inexpensive and great quality!

Amazing visit... - Loved the winery. Its beautifully decorated and you can buy lovely world class wine at a very cheap cost there. Wish the tour company wouldve told me that i could add in another winery in morning... and that there were 3 cars there for 3 separate people...surely we couldve gone in 1 car and cut cost? So not impressed by the company who took us out there...but the tour was amazing.
