A great day trip out with Georgi my guide after my day trip with another company to Plovdvid was canceled at short notice. He was extremely knowledgeable and I got an overall view of the history of Bulgaria as well as the tour. Pick up was on time and his manner and english was wonderful

Le guide était passionnant et a permis de relever une visite un peu décevante. Kazanlak n'a que peu d'intérêt. La tombe thrace est la seule chose à y voir. La visite de la distillerie par contre étaient vraiment intéressante. Les paysages sont absolument magnifiques et méritent le déplacement.
