Our tour guide/driver Vlad was excellent. He was punctual, polite, informative, discreet, fluent in English and a good driver. He told us not only interesting things about the sights we were visiting, but also a lot about Bulgaria. At our request, he took us to a lovely quiet restaurant by the river for lunch that served tasty food. We enjoyed the tour very much. We would definitely ask for Vlad again if we want to plan another private car tour in Bulgaria.
