Top Sofia Day Trips

This was an enjoyable day out from Sofia, all run very efficiently while the tour guide Eva (may not have spelt that correctly) was superb, managing to switch effortlessly between a variety of languages while being uniformly friendly and engaging. The monastery is definitely the main focus of the day rather than Boyana Church - you get a good couple of hours there which is plenty to have a good look round and explore some of the side paths off etc. Boyana Church meanwhile is pretty and has historically significant artwork, but it's definitely Rila that is the main draw. Overall a good day out though and recommended.

It is well worth it at a great price with a very knowledgeable guide who maintained safety at all times and spoke great English. Our guide was Megi Angelova and cannot rate her enough! I would do this tour again in a heartbeat and will be surely recommending to other likeminded travelers I meet! Thank you Megi!

This was a great day trip and definitely worth doing if you want to get out of Sofia and see something completely different. Our day started with a bit of unexpected circumstances when our driver had a medical emergency. Thankfully, the company handled the situation incredibly well. They made sure their driver received the help he needed and quickly arranged another driver so our trip could continue with very little delay. We really appreciated how professional and caring they were. Once we arrived, everything was exactly as described. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and did a great job explaining the history and interesting facts along the way. He even gave us recommendations for places to eat, which was a nice bonus. It's a long day, but the scenery and experience make it absolutely worth it. We'd definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get a taste of Serbia while in Sofia!
