How about starting your day with a glass of sparkling wine tasted in one of the largest underground galleries in the world? If you like this idea, then we recommend you try a getaway in the center of Moldova, starting with a breakfast served in the Underground City of Cricova. This one-day route invites you to visit some of the most famous wineries in Moldova, but if you still have a little time, do not hesitate to go to Orheiul Vechi - a must for those looking for history, authentic architecture, beautiful landscapes , outdoor activities, and local culinary traditions.
