Tour Overview
Join this 3-day hiking and cycling adventure in Moldova. Cycle through one of the biggest underground wine cities in the world and take in Moldova's stunning scenery on a hike.
Itinerary:
Day 1: Having arrived into Moldova you will be picked up and taken to a welcome wine tasting comprised of some of Moldova’s small wine producers. There’s always something a little more special in the small wine producers, as their wines are made in a limited number, they are harder to come across, and every bottle is full of the love and passion of the winemaker.
Day 2: Day two will start by exploring Moldova on foot following a windy trekking route towards the East of the country. It is from here you will take in the extraordinary panorama from a 100m height over the Orheiul Vechi promontory. You will then follow the Raut River all whilst taking in the rich Moldovan lands, Tatarian baths and a breathtaking view of the Orheiul Vechi complex.
By noon, you will have worked up a large appetite and so will be rewarded with a traditional meal at a local guesthouse in Trebujeni where you will take part in a cooking masterclass and enjoy your traditional lunch on the terrace.
After lunch, the tour will continue at the hot spot of the day, Cricova Winery. Here you will discover by bike the longest underground wine city in the world, which at a depth of 35-80m below sea level, stores 30 million liters of wine. Prepare yourself for a 5 km cycle through limestone cellars, wine barrels and the only wine cinema in Moldova, and enjoy a wine tasting while you are there.
Day 3: On the last day, you will be taken to ATU winery, the first urban winery in Moldova. Here you will be greeted by the winemaker and enjoy an express wine and chocolate tasting before being taken to the airport to catch your flight.
