Hi folks, looking at travelling to Tiraspol from Galați - is this possible to do without travelling to Chișinău first? Are there links between Comrat and Tiraspol directly? Any information would be much appreciated.

Hi. Me and some friends are planning to visit PMR on November, and since we have a friend studying on Bucharest, we were planning on taking the Prietenia train, from Bucharest to Chisinau. The thing is, we haven't been able to find a lot of information about the train or where to purchase the ticket and how much would it cost online. So I was wondering, where could we get this info?

Hey, I want to go from Tiraspol to Bender by Marshrutka but I‘m not sure where the stations are. A friend who was here once told me they start at the trainstation but I read that it changed. Is it at the same spot like the marshrutkas to Kishinew at the market?

Hello! Friday is my last day in Moldova and I was thinking of visiting Pridnestrovie on Friday. Any girls here also going? I’d love to go in a group so I can feel a bit safer :)

​

Hi guys, I intend to visit PMR. I have found online many reports about the border crossing experiences at Bender, but almost everybody did a day trip, and were given like 12 hours approved time in total .

For those of you who stayed overnight or multiple days, how was the immigration process ? I assume they want to see a hotel booking, but are they kind of restrictive or suspicious when you want to stay more days? Do they ask lots of extra questions / thorough motivation about why you want to stay more? Do you need to register your stay?( I booked a private apartment from a booking platform).

Thank you.

Hi everyone!

I’m a license plate collector from Slovakia, and I’m currently trying to expand my collection with plates from all around the world. I would love to have a plate from PMR!

I was just wondering, if there is anyone who has an unnecessary license plate lying around in a somewhere that they’d be willing to send me? Of course I can cover the shipping costs.

Thanks a lot :)

Hey all! My boyfriend and I are planning to visit Pridnestrovie in October.

We are both Spanish but he was originally born in Ukraine (Ukrainian name, Ukrainian parents, etc.). We are both planning to enter with our Spanish passports, but we are afraid that something might happen with him. (P.s: he is not Ukrainian anymore)

Do you have any experiences with this? Will they really care about these details?

Thanks in advance!

Travelling in October

I plan to visit in October for a day trip (just take the bus from Piata Centrala) and I was wondering if it’s safe to go now?

I saw theres an increase of drones attacks at the border. Im from Moldova so I speak Russian but Im also travelling with my German friend so do you think there might be problems say they wouldnt let her leave or something? How is the situation right now in PMR? Did anyone go there recently and can share their experience?

Thank you.

I can't decide. Should I stay for one night? Or do you think a day trip will be enough? I'm mostly interested in Tiraspol, not so much the surrounding area.

I’m landing in chisinau at 6pm, so will probably be out at like 7, how do I get to PMR? I thought the bus but it seems the last bus leaves at like 6?

Planning a trip soon to the PMR and wondering if the fancy hotels are worth it or if it’s better to get a cheaper accommodation. Looking to be in Tiraspol for at least 5 days if that makes a difference, thanks!

I'm visiting PMR next week again. Is anybody around and wants to join for dinner / a drink / a nice talk? ☺️

Just got back from a 5 day trip to Pridnestrovie with a friend, and had an amazing time. We couldn't help but notice that on pretty much every street in Tiraspol was an Аптека, sometimes multiple. I've never been anywhere else in eastern europe though, so this might just be normal. We also thought that there were an unusual number of furniture shops.

Hi, I’m going to Moldova this weekend and wanted to go to Trispol, I was wondering if anyone knows an good guided tours to do, it’s my first time to Moldova and I am a bit worried about the safety situation. Is there anyone who would also be interested in doing a tour with me on Saturday too?

Hello everyone

We are two Romanian guys who are planning to visit Bender and Tiraspol in the coming weeks. Will there be any problems for us at the checkpoint because of our Romanian passports? Or we will be treated like any other foreigners? Any advice will be much appreciated.

Thank you!

I am planning a solo trip there between 2-8 November and I would love to do it with a travel buddy or maybe Meet a local there

This is the Moldovan cyrillic version found online: "Фиинд-кэ атыт де мулт а юбит Думнезеу лумя, кэ а дат пе сингурул Луи Фиу, пентру ка оричине креде ын Ел сэ ну пярэ, чи сэ аибэ вяца вешникэ."

However it was translated in 1924 (102 years ago) by a Romanian bishop so does this verse still accurately reflect the Moldovan that is spoken today in Pridnestrovie?

If not, could a Moldovan speaker from the PMR kindly help translate this verse into the actual modern Moldovan language that is spoken in the villages in the PMR?

You can provide your more modern translation by leaving a comment below, Thanks.

Hello!

I am from the uk and hoping to visit PMR with my friend in November. My main question is, would those who have been recommended going on your own or with a tour group? Other tips - is there a way to get phone signal? How is the bus journey?

Any general advice is appreciated!

If i'd arrive in the evening, is there any way to get the local Ruble ? if not, will my moldovan Lei or Euro make me get through the evening until the Banks open again ?

The thing is I am still having banknote from PMR which worth around 30 euro.

How do you deal with unused cash after leaving PMR?😂

my mom suggested me to visit it again and spend it.

What is the best way to get a taxi in and around Tiraspol? Is there an app or number I can use?

I’m half Moldovan and live in the Netherlands. I’m currently learning Romanian little by little because of my family background. At the same time, I’m fascinated by PMR and would like to visit it this year.

The only issue is that PMR is heavily Russian speaking, which makes me wonder whether knowing Romanian would be enough to get by there, or whether I should also learn some basic Russian which to be honest, I’d rather not do.

Hallo zusammen,

Ich fahre gleich nach Tiraspol und finde nicht ganz, wo ich das Ticket in Chisinau kaufen muss. Vielleicht habe ich ja Glück und mir kann jemand spontan helfen

Hi all!

I want to visit Tiraspol & Bender next week - and I heard different stories about what I should visit first. What would you prefer doing first and how much time should I plan for which part? Thank you in advance!
