5.00I would like to recommend Metodiy Ganchev ("Bulgarian Fairy Tale ") as the best "one day tour" guide I have taken! My wife and I, wanted to do the famous Bulgarian route "The Seven Rila Lakes" but with a private drive/guide, He quickly response with a price proposal and answered with details to all my questions He Was on time to pickup us from the hotel. He was turn out to be a very educated person (university bachelor in Archeology) with a deep knowledge of Bulgaria, its history, geography, culture, even the Jewish history, (We are Jewish.), and more/ His English was excellent, and voluntary told us many interesting things about the area and other staff
An amazing day out with Meto

5.00The Seven Rila Lakes are just pure beauty.. Metodiy was my guide for 3 days and I was very pleased to have him. Very informative. He showed me places where normal tourists don’t go. I would certainly recommend this company, also they are not expensive at all. 👍👍👍
