Kris was our guide and he was lovely! Learnt so much, with a few well-delivered jokes, overall a top-notch experience.
I leave Sofia feeling like I know its history quite well, at least to a basic level, and would 100% recommend the 365 Association Sofia Free Tour!
Thank you Kris!

Booked the free city tour of Sofia online. First good impression was that they knew alot of people would be there so 2 guides came to keep the size of the group manageable. Our guide, Slavyan, kept the right pace to this introductory 2 hour tour to Sofia with it's history and a little about it's culture. Our guide was funny, informative, and showed his pride in his city and country. He had a lot of knowledge about the city and was eager to answer any of our questions.

Vasil, somewhat entertaining tour of the city, telling jokes and trying hard to animate a difficult audience of non native English speakers. Perhaps focus more on facts and less of jokes that consistently fell flat
