It was a full day and we saw so much. Learned about history of Plovid and all of Bulgaria. Left at 8:30 and didn’t get back to Sofia until 6:40! Sveat, our guide was wanting to show us so much more but we were exhausted! Really spectacular guide!

Marina is excellent!

Marina was an excellent guide! Gave us the history in an excellent overview and then kept bringing it all to life. Punctual, clear, considerate and a great driver! Extremely knowledgable! Thank you Marina for an excellent day!

Fantastic Tour!

We were picked up on time. The car was very comfortable and the journey was smooth. Svet our guide and driver showed us around Plovdiv and we learned many important facts from his explanations. We saw all the highlights then had some free time for some lunch and shopping. When we finished we met Svet who drove us back to Sofia. I would highly recommend Svet for this tour! He was amazing!
