The hosts are going to pay all efforts for their guests to get familiar with the life-style of Moldovan nationals, to lead a country life without the slightest inconvenience. Therefore, houses are connected to Internet, telephone communications and satellite TV – everything modern people are so accustomed.

Guests are mainly served dishes of national cuisine using mainly foodstuffs grown and bred by peasants within their households: vegetable, fruit, dairy, meat. As a rule, households are located onto shores of water pools and therefore one may pastime while fishing, rowing a boat, swimming or sunbathing. Apart of water recreation facilities, guests are offered to ride horses or to attend to a carriage ride (caruta), to visit local sights places of interest, to hike or to ride a bicycle, to admire a folklore performance.

Tourism complexes offer their guests barbeque parties in the open to admire the divine Moldovan nature, and organise group events (celebrations, conferences, dinners). One is also free to organise a day visit to such households without an overnight stay.

Every visitor who encounters Moldova is sure to mark generosity and hospitality of our nation, its sincerity and kindness. Therefore you will be talked to in common language, you will consume divine wine, you will be treated with mamaliga (national dish of maize) with pork stew and cabbage rolls. You will hear stories about the history of one or another place, you will listen to national songs and music… Similar receptions are unforgettable!
