5.00Phillip is a very experienced guide. Beyond being knowledgeable about Balkans/Bulgarian history, culture and local hidden gems, he could explain key information regarding Bulgarian food and cosmetic industry processes. His ability to lead and navigate our private tour resulted in a very enhanced experience as he was able to adjust the standard tour to our specific interests. We would highly recommend Phillip.
