Why it’s worth visiting

Worth it if you want to see Moldova from the water - organized kayak trips on the Dniester, the Răut and lakes, with gear, guides and transport from Chișinău.

The story

Kayakingtours.md is one of Moldova's leading kayak operators, with its own base on Lesnaia Street (Vadul lui Vodă) and a fleet of dozens of yellow kayaks (single + double), life vests, paddles and helmets. It runs scheduled, GPS-tracked trips on the Dniester (between Țipova and Saharna, around the big bend), on the Răut (through the Orheiul Vechi cliffs) and on Lakes Costești and Ghidighici. A typical trip - 4-6 hours on the water with a riverside lunch break, an instructor-guide for technique, transport to the launch and back to Chișinău (~800 MDL). Private sessions for couples, multi-day expeditions for groups. Best from May to October.

  • “We embarked on an unforgettable four-day adventure, cycling along the Răut River, kayaking 28 kilometers down the Dniester, visiting Mileștii Mici Winery, and exploring the History Museum in Chișinău - all expertly guided and organized by Alex, the passionate founder of Kayaking Tours. We definitely recommend everyone to try asking him about Moldova attractions!”
