Discover Full Transnistria — Extended Northern Route
Overview
Discover Full Transnistria from Chișinău: Bender, Tiraspol & Rybnitsa
Embark on an extended journey through Transnistria, a region known for its Soviet-era heritage, distinctive political identity, historic fortresses, and fascinating local traditions.
Departing from Chișinău, this tour takes you to the historic city of Bender, the regional capital of Tiraspol, and the northern city of Rybnitsa, with stops in Dubăsari and Grigoriopol along the way.
Discover centuries of history at Bender Fortress, explore Tiraspol's monumental squares and Soviet architecture, and visit Rybnitsa's iconic Lenin Monument, erected in 1977 to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the October Revolution.
