Private Guide Bulgaria, a private tour operator known for crafting personalized travel experiences across the Balkans, today announced the launch of Moldova as its newest destination. With this launch, the agency extends the model of custom, guide-led travel into Moldova and Transnistria, both regions still largely undiscovered by mainstream tourism.
The new offering centers on three tour options. The first, 2 Weeks in Romania and Moldova, is a 14-day journey starting in Chisinau, the capital of Moldova, and finishing in Bucharest, Romania. The trip covers 12 cities across Romania, Moldova, and Transnistria, with highlights including the Cricova underground winery, the Merry Cemetery, the Sighisoara Medieval Citadel, the Astra Museum of Folk Civilization, Peles Castle, Bran Castle (Dracula's Castle), Corvin Castle, and the Palace of Parliament, along with two UNESCO World Heritage sites. The second option, Moldova – Romania – Bulgaria, is a 21-day itinerary extending the Moldova-Romania route into Bulgaria. The third, Moldova – Romania – Bulgaria – Serbia, is a 21-day itinerary that adds Serbia, connecting four countries in a single custom road trip across Eastern Europe. Each itinerary can be adjusted in length or expanded to include more Balkan countries to suit each traveler's schedule and interests.
“Moldova is one of the last truly undiscovered corners of Europe, and we've wanted to bring it into our portfolio for a long time,” said Adriana Vassilkova, owner of Private Guide Bulgaria. “Pairing it with Romania, and now with Bulgaria and Serbia, lets us offer travelers a journey that goes far beyond the well-worn trail. From the underground wineries of Cricova to the castles of Transylvania and the streets of Tiraspol where time has stopped. This is exactly the kind of authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience our clients have been asking us for.”
