Journey through time on a captivating day trip to Bulgaria! Our first stop is unique – the St. Dimitrie Basarbovo Monastery. Carved directly into a towering cliff, this active monastery offers a glimpse into Bulgaria's unique religious heritage. Veliko Tarnovo, the crown jewel of Bulgaria's past. Ascend the mighty Tsarevets Fortress, once a royal palace, and marvel at the breathtaking views that unfold before you. Explore the city's charming streets and lose yourself in its impressive architecture. After a delicious lunch, we'll venture to Arbanasi Village, a hidden gem nestled amidst rolling hills. Admire the village's centuries-old architecture and capture stunning panoramas of the surrounding mountains. Throughout your adventure, a knowledgeable English-speaking guide will unveil the fascinating stories and historical significance of each location. Choose between privately or self-guided option. The latter covers also Ruse as a destination.

Vanuit Boekarest een dag mee geweest naar Veliko Tarnovo in Bulgarije. Narcis is een geboren reisleider die met veel plezier en toewijding ons onder zijn hoede nam. De rondleiding van hem in het Citadel van Veliko Tarnovo was verrijkend. Ook gaf hij mij heel nuttige informatie over wat te doen tijdens de rest van mijn verblijf in Roemenië. Koester deze man en wat hij uitstraalt, hij geeft een extra dimensie aan een toch al bijzondere dag. Zou de dag graag nog eens over doen.

Great day tour in Bulgaria. We got the flexibility of the self-guided tour and really enjoyed it with the business partners.

Never thought this kind of scammer still exist in 2024 but obviously only on Viator. The low cost option what’s so called self-guided tour which costs 77USD is merely a two page pdf with historical information from Wikipedia (if this is a business why wouldn’t people do other things for a living), and they refuse to answer any of your questions about transportation before you can cancel for free, and tell you everything is fine until the night before your trip. Then when you wanna cancel they play the victim saying everything was on the page and you are the one to blame, and even if you wanna upgrade to their expensive option of 300Euro they still can’t arrange it, all they want is to keep the money, and the worst part is that it was too late for you to arrange anything else. I would say this is the worst impression they can leave on tourist who merely want a glimpse of Bulgaria on behalf of their country.
