Coisas para fazer em Bulgária

Booking tickets, checking in on the day, and the tour itself were all smooth. We didn't sign up for a guided tour, so if you don't manage your time well for lunch at restaurants or similar places, you'll end up with a lot of free time. However, it was a worthwhile tour. As for areas for improvement, the bus was quite old, and we noticed some deterioration (malfunctions) inside the vehicle.

A very affordable day trip with kind and knowledgeable guides! Sonia the English guide was very kind and knowledgeable about the city. There is a lot of uneven cobblestone and steep hills in Plovdiv so wear comfortable shoes. A lot of stores take card but most pop up vendors only take cash.

The guide was very knowledgeable and their English was easy to understand. However, I booked a 7:00 AM departure through Klook, but the bus actually departed at 6:30 AM. The day before, I received a call on my mobile from the actual travel company. I didn't receive an email, so if my mobile hadn't been available, I wouldn't have been able to go on the tour.

If you opt for Rila Monastery only without Boyana Church, you will still get the chance to catch a glimpse of the exterior of Boyana Church as well as the garden around it. Rila Monastery is awesome with the paintings and it felt peaceful over there. Remember to prepare 50 cents to use the toilets or you can change it using the coffee machine outside the monastery. The tour agency added in another attraction after Boyana Church at no additional cost. Overall, it’s a great tour but we would prefer if there was time allocated for lunch.

I was hesitating between taking public transport and booking this tour, but it was totally worth it! The main reason I wasn’t sure about booking the tour was that I thought I’d have to rush through the hike. But it turned out I had plenty of time to enjoy both the hike and the incredible views. Visiting the Seven Rila Lakes ended up being one of the best days I had in Sofia. Absolutely worth it!

Lucian foi um ótimo guia para a Bulgária! Ele compartilhou história e cultura valiosas, misturadas com um humor perfeito que tornou nossa experiência agradável. Gostaríamos de tê-lo em todos os nossos próximos destinos!

O nosso guia turístico, Martin, é experiente e tem um bom sentido de humor. Ele forneceu muitas informações sobre os locais que visitámos. A excursão foi bem ritmada e tivemos algum tempo livre para explorar por conta própria. Plovdiv, sendo a segunda maior e uma das cidades mais antigas, tem muito a oferecer. Vale a pena visitar. A empresa de turismo também forneceu informações detalhadas em tempo útil.
