Sofia’s city center is not very large and it can easily be visited on foot, but a lot more interesting and fulfilling will be a bike ride, especially if it includes a tour of the capital’s parks. This is what you will experience in this active city tour privately with your local guide.

John was a friendly guide. We saw the whole city which was great. John gave us a little bit of information about each place we visited. He was careful and attentive to our safety.

We did the tour by ourselves! It was just great! The guys at the rental bike store were more than amazing! They were so helpful. They helped in in anyway! I will recommend it 100%

Apart from the walking tour we did, I wanted to show my business delegation Sofia from another point of view. And we took this took. Really fantastic in the autumn

Anither way we explored Sofia parks and most interesting sights. Our guide and the bikes were great. We saw Sofia in this off-beaten-path tour.

The guide had a lot of info that was fine but she didn't really notice if there was enough time for the group to follow her so that she was already across and we had to wait

This was a lovely experience, and a great way to experience Sofia! As much as I love a walking tour, this bike tour enabled us to cover much more ground, in a relaxed way, and to explore some of the more unique attractions on the outskirts of the city, and in some of the vast green spaces of the city. The guide was knowledgeable, flexible (gave us many choices along the way), and shared lots of interesting stories and anecdotes. Exceeded expectations - and naturally, I highly recommend this tour!

Biking in Sofia is well taken care of. The tiur is great and I recommend! The guide was a bit shy in the begining but after 5 min he was doing great!The Bulgarian capital is very interesting when you take on the off-the-beaten path with a bike.

Knowledgeable guide, absolutely cool route through parks and off-the-beaten places in Sofia. We saw the unseen parts of Sofia with less traffic and more tranquility. Recommended for solo, family or with friends!

The tour supplier at last moment unilaterally changed terms of our initial agreement. Original agreement including our voucher indicated hotel pickup would be provided at 9AM on day of tour at central Sofia hotel, in our case the Arte - Dondukov. Hotel information was provided and we reconfirmed our tour with supplier and Viator via email several days prior to scheduled tour date. On the day prior to the scheduled tour, supplier unexpectedly sent overnight e-mail unilaterally revising original tour terms including the tour start time. The modified voucher indicated NO HOTEL PICKUP as originally agreed and paid for would be provided. Additionally, the voucher CHANGED THE STARTING TIME OF THE BIKE TOUR from 9AM to 11AM. The voucher indicated we would need to FIND OUR OWN WAY AND TRANSPORTATION to a meeting point at a local city landmark for start of the tour. We discovered later our tour guide was providing FREE tours at the same time of our paid tour. Our original agreement suggested the groups would be small in size, but we were informed by the guide there was NO limit on how many individuals might be included in our city bike tour. We waited several minutes past the new starting time for others who might arrive. We were required to walk to a bike rental shop a few blocks away. In addition to additional expense and inconvenience incurred prior to the tour, the bicycle tour itself was NOT as originally described or implied by the supplier. The tour included sometimes steep, rocky and dangerous off-road hills designed for experienced riders and mountain bikes. Some hills were so steep that walking our bicycles uphill was required. Some bicycles were of inferior quality and in need of repair. In particular, the bicycle of one tour group member had what seemed to be a failing rear wheel bearing. Some bicycle seat posts were not fastened securely, inclined to drop or swivel. All this said, the guide was friendly and knowledgeable, but the tour not worth the price paid.

Tour Guide was very knowledgeable and provided an excellent background of Sophia and the country. No water or bike helmets were including. As Sofia does not have dedicated bike lanes, at times you must carry your bike up and down underpass stairs to cross busy interactions.
