Sofia guided walking tour

Bill_H, Sep 2022

We had a very friendly, approachable guide. She took her time and we were not rushed which made the experience great as we could enjoy the Sofia sights. Saw all the main parts of city center and the changing of the guard was timed perfectly for us to see. Great way to start our Bulgarian holiday. Our guide was friendly, happy to talk and answer any questions and also to stop for refreshments. Picked us up from our hotel, which was not on the booking, so that was great.
