Our tour guide was very nice and knowledgeable, and the tour at Milestii mici is a not-to-be missed activity. The cellar and tasting room are impressive. You’ll train/walk around the cellar for about 40 minutes then end with a sit down wine tasting with three wines and a meat/cheese plate.
Unique wine experience

Fantastic half-day tour. I like very much that I was given two options to start: early at 8:05am and later after 10:00 am. My guide Ecaterina was knowledgeable, polite, smiling and friendly. She stopped anywhere I wanted to take pictures and make the tour smooth and enjoyable. Winery visit was a delight: tour, tasting, music. Food during tasting was rather light lunch than snacks. Nice! Recommend for everybody.
Nice trip

🇬🇧 Well organised- everything worked a promised. Pick up right on time in front of my hotel, then direct drive to the Manuc- Bey- Complex, then Lunch break and after that the final drive to Mileştii Mici. All guides explained everything well and there was enough time for own questions and fotos. After a happy wine- tasting (+free gift) with music & other tourists Guide Slava drove me back to my hotel in Chisinau. Many Thanks for the experience! 🇩🇪 Gut organisierte Tour in Chisinaus Umgebung. Pünktliche Abholung am Hotel, Fahrt zum Manuc- Bey- Komplex in Hîncești. Danach Mittagspause in der Stadt, anschließend zum Mileştii- Mici- Weingut. Fahrt + Führung durch die Anlage, zum Ausklang Weinverkostung mit musikalischer Begleitung & anderen Touristengruppen. Transfer zurück zum Hotel- Danke für den erlebnisreichen Tag!
