Overview

During the 5-6 hours trip, you will see really amazing places and landmarks, starting from our meeting point St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, then going by car/van to the breathtaking, 186-metre tall TV tower - Kopitoto ("The Hoof"), situated on top of Vitosha mountain at 1,348 m altitude. You will have unique opportunity to walk around the cliff and take stunning pictures of Sofia from the TOP :)! Next stop will be the popular UNESCO heritage - about 900 years old - Boyana Church. After the visit we go to a very nice traditional Bulgarian restaurant. When we finish our lunch (not included) we will go to another amazing place in the nature - Pancharevo lake and the hot spring mineral pools there :)! Regardless of the weather you will have the pleasure to dip yourself in the hot mineral waters in a outdoor swimming pool with a magnificent view of the lake :)! We will spend 1-2 hours there and then we will bring you back to the starting point in Sofia - St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral :)!

Excellent Sofia experience

Published on Mar, 2025

This was a fantastic trip, we particularly enjoyed the tv mast and special view of Sofia, the thermal swimming pool and the delicious lunch in a rustic traditional Bulgarian restaurant. Dimitry our guide spoke very good English and was very helpful and knowledge . We learned a lot about Bulgaria and Sofia.

Superb

Published on Aug, 2024

The experience is exactly as described in the app. Very well organized and properly timed. You get to see a glimpse of the historical and cultural sites along with a local taste at one of the oldest restaurants in Bulgaria (Limoncheto - very tasty food with authentic atmosphere & reasonable prices - yes you read it right). The tour’s guide called Yadoslav is very knowledgeable about Bulgaria’s history - he gives you insightful information in a subtle way. Moreover, he goes the extra mile by engaging with the participant and discussing commonalities between the two cultures (if any) and recommending the best places in town to visit and explore. I really enjoyed my time. An experience not to be missed.

Awesome experience

Half day Sofia tour

Published on Jul, 2024

A good tour with a good variety of places. We had already visited a couple of the sites, but this had been with a personal guide. On the second visit, we were able to roam by ourselves. The tour finished at a thermal spa. At each stop the guide took a photo and sent them on afterwards. Included with these was a video of the route taken.
