Travelled with Diana on a private trip from Sofia to Buzludzha monument. Diana was really informative and demonstrated a real passion fro her country and it’s history which she willingly shared on the long journey.
I booked two trips with private guide to see more of Bulgaria without the hassle of booking a car and driving in a strange land with an unfamiliar alphabet.
Hristo our guide, was friendly passionate, punctual, knowledgeable, entertaining. Took us to Rila plus Melnik one and day Plovdiv for 2nd trip. Worth every penny. Will book again.
I asked private winery tour in Melnik Region. My guide was so kind and professional, he made my tour so memorable. Because of private tour, the tour price was not cheap, but it was worth to try. Thank you so much.
In the ancient past, Sofia was the favorite place for restoration for Emperor Constantine the Great, who called it “my Rome”. Now it attracts throngs of tourists seeking diverse types of recreation and vacation activities. Just like in the ancient period of its existence, when the site was frequently sought for the favorable conditions and the spellbinding charm of nature, as well as on account of its central location with respect to major crossroads, nowadays Sofia welcomes with a much vaster selection of sights, attractions, sports opportunities, and, not least, restaurants boasting delectable local cuisine, rich in vegetables and spices found especially here. That is a heaven for those longing to immerse in ancient times’ glory and significance, and for those who are avid cultural events attendees.
Sofia city is also a favored spot for tourists who sample its rich history and culture. For mountaineers, it is a frequent target as the nearby mountains, especially Vitosha, are reached quickly and immersed in crisp air, verdant surroundings, and welcoming chalets. Winters are busy here, as the city welcomes winter sports fans who head for Vitosa’s ski slopes. In all seasons the moderate continental climate is auspicious for vacations, with an annual temperature averaging 10.1 degrees Centigrade.
