Sightseeing Tours

Guided and self-driven sightseeing tours around Bulgaria
The turbulent history of Bulgaria, influenced by its crossroad location between Europe and Asia, offers a variety of places of interest to be explored – either monasteries and churches (some of them more than 10 centuries old), or museum villages from the Revival Period declared architectural reserves in recent days… but not only. Bulgaria has a lot more to offer: ancient Thracian tombs and sanctuaries, unique nature and diverse landscapes changing every 50km, vast mountains, deep gorges and sinister caves, unique traditions and cuisine, special local brands of wine and brandy etc.
Roundtrips are the best way to explore many of the country's places of interest, accompanied by a guide (or just a driver) for limited time.

Self-drive

Self-drive

With the rapid growth of foreign visitors to Bulgaria during the last decade and the improvement of the infrastructure self-drive holidays proved to be a satisfying and cost-effective way to travel around the country. The biggest advantage of these trips is that you can choose what to do and to fully enjoy your independence when planning the itinerary and the way you follow it. This applies when you choose your type of car for hire, the standard of the accommodation, the period of the year, the duration, the regions you would like to see most, the activities you would like do (more or less hiking instead of sightseeing etc.) and so on. A typical self driven tour would include a little bit of everything – nature and wildlife, culture, sightseeing, swimming, walking etc… everything, that fulfills your personal interest. What is unique with this type of travelling is that you can customize the trip anytime – not only in advance but also on spot, taking in mind the current weather conditions, your physical fitness etc.
Detailed and personalized description of the tour will be given prior departure. These would include maps, route notes, roadbooks for the hiking stages, information on working times and entrance fees of museums, caves etc., backup suggestions in case of bad weather conditions, road conditions, driving times, 24 hrs emergency telephone number etc.
