All Bulgaria Tours & Excursions in 2026

Pleasant and satisfying tour followed with the Italian guide Martin who accompanied us to discover the old city of Plovdiv with competence and availability. Absolutely positive and recommended experience. The bus transfer from the center of Sofia to Plovdiv was also excellent.

A really cool day out! The day feels a lot shorter than it was due to several breaks in the journey. The walking tour is short but you do get a couple of hours to explore on your own which is great. The driver really knew his stuff and his English was impeccable.

The guided walking tour of Sofia was a wonderful way to discover the city and learn about its rich history and culture. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and the audio explanations at the important landmarks provided interesting background and context, making each stop more meaningful. I really enjoyed exploring the city on foot, seeing its main sights, and learning fascinating details that I might otherwise have missed. The tour was well worth it and gave me a much better understanding of Sofia and its history. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city!

Its was a beutiful day with a great guide. We lwere picked up by Dimitar at our hotel. He was kind and patient, and so were our fellow passengers. We saw the cold weather but our guide promissed that after the tunnel we will see the sun.Indeed it came. During the whole trip to Plovdiv he explained about the history, geography and people of Bulgaria. As we got to Plovdiv he came with us and exllained and stayed with almost the whole time very responsive to our questions. Later we visited a beautiful monastery and medieval fortress and church. Everybody was very pleased with the tour, especially with the guide (5*****) and the planning

It was a fantastic day out of the city. We first saw Rila Monastery in the morning when it was still very quiet what we enjoyed very much. After that we had about four hours in the mountains. As the lift didn’t run our guide had organized jeeps. The ride was a bit of an adventure (esp. downhill) as we were far too many people in the vehicle, but we survived (-: . The hike was extremely beautiful, we only wished we would have had another hour to see even more. Our guide Apostolos was friendly, very caring and knowledgeable. We had a terrific day!

The guide is great, passionate, and cheerful! Thanks to him for this excursion, the explanations throughout the trip and on-site, as well as for the fritters and the Bulgarian yogurt! I would also specify an excursion that is either for the full day or from 12:00 PM to 6:30 PM rather than 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM because it is too short with the travel time :)

Our experience has been very satisfactory. They picked us up at the indicated time and, as a courtesy from the company, they included a visit to the Bell Park. It is well worth spending some time visiting this park, as the history, the values behind it, and the meaning of unity between countries, especially for preserving childhood, are very interesting. Afterward, we continued the trip to the Rila Monastery, making a 20-minute stop at a service station before arriving. During the bus ride, the very professional and dedicated guide kept giving us information about everything we were seeing. She informed us in great detail about everything, her name is Krasi, and we were very lucky that she was the one who accompanied us throughout the day. The bus was not entirely comfortable since it had little legroom and the seats were not comfortable. On the other hand, it is worth highlighting the skill and caution of the driver who parked in difficult places and drove very well on the mountain roads; it was a pleasure and at all times we felt very safe. Without a doubt, it was a great decision to choose Traventuria because of the attention from Krasi, our guide. The monastery is beautiful and impressive; later we went to the Cave of Saint Ivan and it was an unforgettable experience with a lot of spiritual content. Without a doubt, the best part of the visit was our guide, since without her we would not have known so many details nor taken such advantage of the visit. Her level of knowledge about the Rila Monastery, the cave, and Bulgaria in general was amazing. She also knew a lot about Bulgarian flora and species. A pleasure to travel with her.

Nis is interesting and I enjoyed this tour. Our guide Lubo was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. After a previous accident, I'm not a fan of motorways and the speed limits in Bulgaria are higher than what I'm used to but Lubo was a great driver and I felt very safe in his car. We had long queues at the borders but he kept us in good spirits. I would avoid this tour during the summer holidays as I believe the border queues are rediculous.
