Overview

Most visitors to Transnistria see Soviet monuments and city squares. This tour takes you beyond them – into hidden military sites, underground tunnels, and places that even many locals have never visited.
Just outside Tiraspol, in the villages of Parkany and Bychok, a forgotten layer of history still survives.
Highlights include:
1. A real WWII-era defensive bunker (DOT) hidden on the outskirts of Parkany.
2. Exclusive access to a decommissioned Soviet anti-hail rocket station – an experience unavailable on any other tour in Transnistria. See original rocket models and an authentic launch control panel.
3. Exploration of underground limestone tunnels stretching for hundreds of kilometers beneath Bychok.
4. A walk along the Dniester River to a giant Soviet red star carved directly into the rock.
5. A panoramic viewpoint overlooking the Dniester.
Led by Andrew, a local guide born and raised in Transnistria, this tour reveals a side of Transnistria that most visitors will never see.

A once-in-a-lifetime experience unavailable on any standard tour. Descend into nearly 1km of underground tunnels carved into the rock beneath the village.
