The monastery, rock hewn churches and the Veliko Tarnovo Fortress all were amazing in their own unique ways

We would like to acknowledge and send our sincerest gratitude to our private tour guide, Claudiu Sorin. We were originally scheduled for a group tour but Viator cancelled it the day before because there were not enough people joining the tour so they gave us an option to do a private tour which we did. We have traveled all over Europe for many, many years and very often join tour groups, but no one can surpass Claudiu’s kindness, honesty, sincerity, care, respectfulness as well as his vast knowledge of Romania and Bulgaria’s history. He was a very dedicated and hardworking tour guide. He went over and above to make our tour comfortable and safe. There was so much traffic going to Bulgaria but we enjoyed talking to him during the long road trip and learning about Romania and Bulgaria’s cultures. He also told us that even after the tour and we have any questions, to feel free to reach out to him, which we did and he was absolutely very responsive. Claudiu, thank you so very much for making our private tour so memorable and special. We will be recommending to our friends in the U.S to book a private tour with Viator and specifically request for Claudiu Sorin as their tour guide.

The guide was a good driver but a little too fast for us.
His knowledge of the local environment and history was very poor. His English was acceptable and a very nice person but he was on the phone for too long and too often with what we believe personal matters
