Highly Recommend Roman - Roman is a true professional. He took care of the little details which made for a smooth, informative and interesting day in Tiraspol. During the trip to Tiraspol he listened, answered my questions and even adjusted a little to my interests He took time to learn about me and my travels. I couldn’t have been happier with the visit to the country which does not exist. Once he learned of my interest in my Russian/German heritage he rearranged his schedule and took me to my German/Russian ancestors village in Bessarabia region of Ukraine the following day. This was a dream of mine to visit this village and he helped me fulfill this dream. He confirmed some of my research on the location of the village and showed up the next day very well prepared. He introduced me to the local librarian/village historian who gave me a great history of the village. I was able to walk the streets of my ancestors and now share this experience with my family. Thanks Roman the great experience. I highly recommend his services.

Tour to Transnistria - The tour with Roman is really recommended. On the way to transnistria he explained a lot about the german settlers and made some interesting stops, bevore we entered the border to transnistria, which still has a soviet charm. A local guide explained the most important sights and the history of Tiraspol and adjusted to individual interests. The tour also led to Bendery fortress, a huge historical site with an unique history. Thanks to Roman for the perfect organisation and the very interesting trip!

Going back in time - This tour takes you 30 years back to a city that still keeps an old soviet style in their architecture and ambience. The tour also included a walking time through their main streets and most important placed located in downtown with a good local guide who explained a lot of details about their history and current situation in Transnistria. Tour also included a visit to Bender fortress, which is also beautiful and interesting, specially for their torture implements, which actually were pretty scaring... Great logistics since Odessa to Transnistria and I really enjoyed this tour. Fully recommended, thanks Roman and your team for this great experience!
