I am a solo female traveler in my late 40’s and have seen this monument on many YouTube videos for years. When this activity popped up in my search of things to do I knew I had to go! My guide and the owner of the company Alex was so gracious and great conversation. We traveled all day around Bulgaria with him explaining detailed history on several different sites we stopped at including a fortress with a crazy church now deemed monument due to the art inside it, the site of the “eagles nest”, several iconic communist monuments and the crown jewel of Buzludzha. He provided a tasty picnic, plenty of water, and an absolute wonderful day. I enjoyed it so much I booked a second day with him to go hiking in the Bucegi mountains. It was a terrific experience. I originally had been concerned about weather being too hot and had cancelled but changed my mind and was so glad I did! If you want a safe catered to you experience seeing historical or obscure sites while in Bucharest he is the one to choose!
