Sent the baby on the last day of fall break. Daughter (9 years old) came back very pleased she liked everything: archery, searching for the right place on the map, lighting a fire together with a partner, filtering the water, tying special knots and climbing the cable, playing catch-up, and of course, frying sausages and marshmallow at the fire ))) Of the coach, she said, "fun and social." As a parent, I cared about professionalism and safety. Decided to try after a recommendation from friends and were very pleased!
Unforgettable Experience for the Kids!

We picked Plamen’s basic survival course as the main activity of my friend’s bachelor trip. We were a group of 8 (men and women) and he managed to keep us busy, entertained and interested for the 2 whole days it lasted. We felt truly disconnected from our daily lives and in touch with nature in an exciting way, and made unforgettable memories when jumping from the tower, making fire, cooking by it, sleeping in a tent and eating and drinking from what the forest gave us. We discovered so many new things while Plamen also managed to keep it comfortable for us (city mice) from beginning to the end. I would warmly recommend this camp if you are looking for a unique experience in Bulgaria and in nature !

My daughter went to the Wildlife Survival School this August, and she absolutely loved it. She had a great time in the nature with her friends and told me all about what skills they learned after she came back. The instructor was very supportive, and the organization went smoothly.

My 9 year old daughter had an amazing week on the wilderness survival course. Every day she told me about the adventures and what she had learned with enthusiasm.She liked the most that they found crayfish and frogs, that they ate nettles, that they saw a bat, and that they climbed rocks. She shew me how to make knots, how to filter dirty water and how to make a shelter. She said that it was the best experience ever!

Set in a stunning, pristine location far from the usual hustle and bustle, it was the perfect escape. I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone looking to break free from their daily routine.
