What are people saying about Bulgaria

A great overview of Bulgarian history
Vasil was a great guide. His tour and commentary were very informative and interesting, covering history from the Thracians to now, visiting important and historic religious, cultural and civic buildings, statues and archaeological sites, as well as taking in the Central Park. I now feel much better informed about Serdica and its heritage.

Great opportunity to see something different
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!

Very interesting place, wear comfortable shoes
It was a 1 day tour to Plovdiv from Sofia, comfortable bus with a good driver and an excellent guide Eva. She was also our English speaking guide for the walking tour in Plovdiv. Eva is very knowledgeable and speaks fluently multiple languages. Very good value for the money.

A Memorable Tour with an Exceptional Guide, Ms. Ornella
We joined the Rila Monastery and Boyana Church Full-Day Tour on May 27, 2025, and it was one of the highlights of our visit to Bulgaria.
A special thank you to our tour guide, Ms. Ornella, who made the experience truly memorable. She is warm, energetic, and humorous, with a genuine passion for sharing Bulgaria's rich history and culture. Throughout the tour, she provided detailed information and clear explanations about the sites we visited, bringing the history to life in an engaging and easy-to-understand way.
Ms. Ornella was also attentive to her guests, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and included. Her enthusiasm, professionalism, and friendly personality created a wonderful atmosphere for the entire group.
The stunning beauty of Rila Monastery and the historical significance of Boyana Church were greatly enhanced by her insightful commentary. We highly recommend this tour, especially if you have the opportunity to explore these remarkable UNESCO World Heritage Sites with Ms. Ornella as your guide.

100% worth it
A fantastic experience that is 100% worth doing whilst visiting Sofia.
Phillip was a great guide, informative and kept in touch with us throughout the day.
The hike itself is incredible, the views are breathtaking but the walk is definitely moderate if you are not an experienced hiker. There is an option to do a much easier route but we chose the circular route which we found harder than we expected. We found the snow was still quite thick in places so make sure you have sensible shoes on and consider buying sticks at the bottom of the chair lift to aid you! Phillip messaged us the night before with everything we needed to know, including the correct gear to bring which was super helpful!
The lakes are beautiful and should absolutely be on your bucket list!
The Rila Monastery was a lovely way to end the day and again, worth a visit.
The coach was clean and had air conditioning.

All praise to our guide...
All praise to our guide Kiko who was so energetic and informative and drove us a long way so we had an opportunity to visit the beautiful city of Skope.
It was such an interesting place and special to view the birthplace of Mother Teresa and be in awe of the giant statue of Alexander the Great.
The bazaars are exciting to see and they certainly imbue the ambience and authenticity of this area.

This day trip proved...
This day trip proved excellent value during our week in Sofia. Our guide Nina was so competent, warm and friendly and simply a wealth of knowledge with regards The Old Town of Plovdiv and Bulgaria in general.
Fascinating houses and history.
The ancient architectural structures were extraordinary and filled with wonder.
I certainly recommend this experience to anyone with a keen interest in their current vicinity and history in general.

Fantastic Experience A+++++
Fantastic tour covering Rila Monastery and the Seven Rila Lakes. Our tour was in a comfortable car with just 5 people in the group. The ride to and from Rila was smooth. Our driver and guide Apostolos was very friendly, kind and super flexible which made the tour very enjoyable. We had plenty of time to admire each attraction and never felt rushed. We were able to make coffee and bathroom stops along the way as well. As for the attractions, Rila Monastery is amazing and so are the Seven Rila Lakes. The tour operator shared detailed information ahead of time so that we could be prepared for the hike to the Rila Lakes. Overall, this is an absolute must do tour if you are visiting Sofia. Arrived safely in Sofia before 6 PM which left me plenty of time to explore other things in the evening.

Day trip to Rila Monastery
A day trip out to the Rila Monastry. Definitely worth a visit it is beautiful and the church is ornate. Off then to Boyne church also worth a visit. We stopped at a national memorial on the way back which celebrated children and there were bells from all over the world. Took packed lunch though you can buy pastries at the monastery.
Downside was the toilets at the monastery are awful just appalling! Wait until you get to the Boyne church.

Peter was great, took us...
Peter was great, took us to delicious spots with lots of food, and was able to accommodate to everyone. He was passionate and you could tell how much he enjoyed what he did as well. He knew the history of the area well and gave good recommendations for the rest of the trip

Definitely recommend
Wonderful tour from the organization to the tour guide, would recommend and hope to have the opportunity to book another trip again. Anthony was a great guide, friendly, kind, gave a very good description of the important points to see, good sense of humor. The driver was amazing driving very safely too.

Highly recommend
I absolutely loved this trip! You just need to make sure you're wearing appropriate clothing for the hike as it does get cold there. The guide was friendly and informative. I wish we had a little bit more time at the monastery as it's such a stunning place!
