  • Tsarevets, Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria
    Veliko Tarnovo impresses with its location on the hills around the medieval fortress, the story of the four Asan kings, and the fragrance of roses. Asan was an army commander and founder of the Asan dynasty. Together with his brother Petru, acknowledged king by the Pope of Rome, they founded the Kingdom of the Bulgarian Vlachs (12-th century, the Second Bulgarian Empire). Following victories against the Byzantium emperors, with the help received from Romanians north of the Danube, the brothers acquired recognition as emperors. The Veliko Tarnovo Fortress is famous for its remarkable architectural monuments, miniatures, mural paintings, literature, arts and crafts. It is located on the main road connecting Europe with Asia Minor in the valley of the Yantra river. From its glory days as the king`s capital we can still see a lot even today, but the town is still holding  secrets and legends referring to hidden royal libraries and treasures from the burned monastery.

Then visit Konstantzalieva House, built in the 17th century and belonging to one of the rich merchant families of the place. Complete your tour with the half underground Church of the Nativity, the earliest in Arbanassi. The iconostasis of this church is one of the earliest examples of superb woodcarving work in Bulgaria. Most of the depictions in the gallery represent the Orthodox Calendar from January, February and March. These calendar series comprise stories from The Old Testament - scenes revealing the martyrdom of different saints.

Great way to see Bulgaria from Bucharest. Our tour guide Angelica was very knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. We stopped at a restaurant in Bulgaria recommended by Angelica - the food was delicious and the staff were friendly. Lots of photo opportunities - I would definately recommend this tour !

Sammen med en veldig hyggelig sjåfør (som skal få terningkast seks), ble turen en flott opplevelse, bortsett fra veistandarden i Bulgaria, som er et eget kapittel. Skal slutte å klage på humpete veier i Norge. Både fjellklosteret i Basarabov og den gamle festningen i Veliko Tarnovo var interessante å oppleve. Sammen med monumentet til Asen-dynastiet og Arbanassi, så ble det en lang og innholdsrik dag. Drøye tre timers kjøring hver vei, pluss sightseeing, så ble det en 13 timers tur.

We spent 5 beautiful days in Romania and booked two amazing trips with Romania Tourstore. Everything was perfectly organized. We enjoyed both days and created unforgettable memories. Ion, our tour guide made each trip even more enjoyable. Very knowledgeable, he answered all our questions and shared with us fun and historical facts that made his stories even more interesting. Although the trips were 2 to 3 hours long, Ion made sure that everyone is feeling comfortable. he even showed us hidden gems that were amazing to explore. Next time we will definitely book a long tour with them. If you want to enjoy your vacation, relax and explore, Romania Tourstore is what you are looking for. Highly recommended!
