Took the tour to Veliko Tarnovo in mid-December 2019. It's about a 3 hour drive. The city is absolutely beautiful and pictures really do not do it justice. On top of this, the guide was extremely knowledgeable about Bulgaria, especially Veliko Tarnovo and Arbanassi. Thanks to the guide and the beauty of the area, we really enjoyed our day trip.
