What our customers say about their trips across Moldova
We collect feedback from drivers who picked up vehicles in Chisinau and explored Moldova's roads. Every review helps us maintain service standards and shows what to expect when you collect keys at RMO or arrange hotel delivery. Names are shortened for privacy, and we verify each submission before publishing.
Collected a Dacia Duster at Chisinau International Airport terminal on a Saturday morning. Staff walked me through the rental agreement, noted existing scratches on the bumper, and I drove straight to Orheiul Vechi monastery complex - 60 km on E581 and local roads. Ground clearance handled the unpaved sections around the archaeological site without issues. Returned the vehicle on Tuesday with no complications.
Needed a vehicle for a week-long trip from Chisinau to Soroca fortress and back via Cricova winery. Booked a Hyundai Tucson through 4Drive Moldova, paid the advance online, settled the rest at pickup with my debit card. The written permission for cross-border travel to Romania was prepared as requested - we drove to Iasi for a day. Fuel economy was good on the 110 km/h stretches of national roads.
First time driving in Moldova. Picked up a Toyota Corolla at the airport and spent four days visiting wineries - Milestii Mici was 18 km from Chisinau, easy drive on paved roads. The voucher included the rental company's local contact number, which I called once to ask about parking near the National Museum. Speed limits are clearly marked: 50 km/h in towns, 90 km/h on open roads. Refuelled at Bemol stations without trouble.
Rented a Renault Logan for a week in April. Pickup at Chisinau city centre was smooth, and the car ran well on the route to Cahul - 180 km through small towns and countryside. Only minor issue: there were already some scratches on the rear door that were listed in the agreement, but it took extra time at pickup to confirm everything was documented. Otherwise, no problems. Returning the vehicle took ten minutes.
Booked a Skoda Octavia for a business trip in January. 4Drive sent the voucher immediately after I paid the advance. The rental company delivered the vehicle to my hotel in Centru district at 9 AM as scheduled. I drove to meetings in Balti and Ungheni over three days - roads were clear, though it was cold. Returned the car at RMO on my departure day. Professional service throughout.
We wanted to visit Transnistria and needed special permission, which the rental company arranged in advance. Picked up a Volkswagen Passat at the airport and drove to Tiraspol - 70 km on good asphalt. Crossing the administrative boundary required the extra paperwork, but it was straightforward. The car had air conditioning that worked well in the July heat. We also stopped at Cricova winery on the return leg, just 15 km north of Chisinau.
Collected a Ford Focus at RMO terminal after my flight landed at noon. The agent explained payment options at pickup - I used my debit card for the remainder after paying the advance online. Drove to the Romanian border at Sculeni, only 18 km, then spent the weekend in Iasi. Written permission for cross-border travel was included. Continental climate meant warm days in August, and the car's air conditioning was essential.
Family trip in September. Booked a seven-seat Dacia Lodgy and added a child seat as an extra service. Pickup was at the airport, and we drove straight to our accommodation. Over the week we visited Orheiul Vechi, Soroca fortress (160 km north), and several villages. Right-hand traffic and well-marked speed limits made navigation easy. Staff were helpful when I emailed [email protected] with a question before arrival.
