Vé di động
I do postcards with my drawings and budget tours to top attractions and hidden gems of Pridnestrovie. Transfer from Chishinau or start in Tiraspol. Honestly, I can’t make Maldives of my country, because it is not Maldives. But i can make an unforgettable journey through all contrasts of what it really is - beautiful panoramas and impressive soviet relics, curious history and nowadays life in the country that doesn't exist, combining classic walk with forays for true explorers and adventurers.
Tour takes ~ 2,5 hours. It is not Stalinism, we are very volatile where to go and what to do, but default route covers must-see USSR era and modern bits of Tiraspol, plus my favorite nooks and crannies that I discovered doing my sketches. The trip won’t be exhausting, not boring at all, we will have time to talk about all peculiarities of past and present of Transnistria, real name is Pridnestrovie ☭
You won’t be meeting a guide, you will be meeting a friend!

Cần Quan Tâm
House of Soviets
Default route covers best modern bits and soviet relics of Tiraspol. It is not strict consumerist kind of deal, we are free to decide where to go and what to do. There is enough to see for a two day tour so you can imagine - no matter how much I will tell and no matter how fast I speak - it will be just top of an iceberg. But we will dive as deep as possible. Take a look behind the iron curtain, discover Pridnestrovie- the most epic remnant among USSR debris.

5.00I have lived all over the world and have been lucky enough to have done a huge amount of cultural tours in my time, but this tour/experience with Anton is nothing short of phenomenal. He is a wealth of knowledge and is excited to share it with all visitors. The entire tour from start to finish was seamless, engaging, completely safe, thought provoking, honest, and something that I would do again in heartbeat. Do yourself a favor and book this tour with Anton immediately! Absolute legend!

5.00Great - day. So much more than just the sites. I step into the experience of living and breathing Pridnestrovie - not just the monuments. Highly recommend!!
A must for Transnistria.

5.00One of the best tours I have ever had. Anton is very dedicated and provides a very good insight into the country that does not exist. Transnistria is a must for all travelers who want to experience something real. Anton helps to get to know this country better. I cannot imagine that there is anyone more qualified for this. I traveled independently, but Anton had already given me many valuable tips in advance. I often and gladly explore cities alone, but what I learned during this tour could never have been found out from the usual sources.
What an awesome day we had!!

5.00We spent today in Priednestrovie with Anton, and honestly, it felt less like a tour and more like spending the day with a friend who genuinely loves sharing his home and culture. The entire experience was incredibly baby-friendly for our 9-month-old girl, which made such a difference for us as traveling parents. When we unexpectedly ran out of baby milk formula, Anton immediately helped us find some locally without any stress. Small gestures like that say everything about the kind of person and guide he is. Even though the KVINT factory is closed on Sundays, he still managed to get us tasting local cognac. Along the way we picked up amazing little memories — plastic coins from an antique shop, fridge magnets and postcards designed by Anton himself — and at no point did anything feel forced or salesy. Everything was thoughtfully woven into the experience. And then there were the hidden gems… from secret spots to an unforgettable USSR-style cantine experience with local beer. Some parts are best left undisclosed because you really need to experience them yourself to understand the atmosphere and meaning behind it all. Huge thanks as well to Inna, who handled our logistics seamlessly between Castle Mimi and Tiraspol, including the border crossings both ways. She even managed to arrange a baby car seat for us on short notice, which we appreciated enormously. If you want a genuine, warm, insightful and human experience in Priednestrovie — not just a checklist tour — Anton and Inna are the people to go with. And folks… it’s Priednestrovie, NOT Transnistria 😉
An experience, not just a tour

5.00This is not a tour — it’s an authentic day inside Pridnestrovie with someone who actually lives it. Anton Dendemarchenko doesn’t just throw dates and names at you; he pushes you to question, interpret, and really see what’s around you. Smart, raw, and unforgettable. Easily one of the most interesting travel experiences I’ve had.
Great experience with Anton as a solo female

5.00did a tour with Anton yesterday and I was the only person on tour. He was very patient to answer all my questions about pridnestrovie(Transnistria). I actually didn’t know much about it. Traveling solo as a female ( i am from Hong Kong living in France) I felt super safe driven around and walked around with Anton, he connected me with local people and I get to know about the peaceful life in Tiraspol and the history of this place! I highly recommend especially for people who don’t speak the local language - it makes a huge difference! Je vous conseille à 100% cette petite excursion avec Anton. Je me sens tres en sécurité avec Anton en tant que femme voyageant solo. 非常推薦！價錢合理！Antón 是100% 住在Transnistria 的人!
Spectacular trip, thanks dima, andry and anton!

5.00Me and wife went on the tour and it was top class! From the moment we were picked up by an absolute legend Dima! He took us there and back and made us feel really comfortable and safe! He was more than a driver and was able to do all the things i wanted. Get some great souvenirs and see some wonderful mosoaics and purchase some soviet beer. Anton was working so Andrey delivered the tour instead. He was very informative and 100 percent worth paying for his great depth of knowledge, he answered many of my questions and personalised the tour for our liking. Thanks so much guys, I will recommend for.my friends!
Хорошо!!!! Buenísimo!!!!

5.00Hola!!! During the tour with Anton, you’ll learn a whole lot. But don’t expect a list of facts and dates… The tour with Anton is an immersive, authentic experience full of humor. You definitely shouldn’t miss it if you’re visiting Pridnestrovia and want to get a glimpse into the reality of the country and its people. Thank you so much, Anton! Muchas gracias amigo! We hope to see you again. увидимся друг!
What an experience in the country that doesn’t exist…

5.00Great experience and a great guide!Anton and his friend Dima showed me a lot of highlights, historical points , nice restaurant and at the same time invited me and other participants of the tour to think about our ideas about this country which doesn’t exist .. thank you so much Anton, wish you all the best 😇
From one small country (Malta) to another! (Pridnestrovie)

5.00Those of us from small countries are always eager to share information, history, and insights about where we are from, to foreigners alike. I have the fortune of being from a small, but recognised country. Anton's mission to spread knowledge about his country is therefore all the more challenging given its unrecognised status, but he delivers! Raw, uncut conversations about local life and challenges, and some very interesting sights to see! I cannot recommend Anton enough! Спасибо!
