5.00The tour was an incredible story of Bulgaria and Sofia filled with interesting stories and facts. I enjoyed every single one of them. Even though it was raining many of the places we visited had cover, so it wasnt much of an issue. The guide was welcoming and smiley.

5.00Just the fact that it is free is a higher level initiative, you can give, if you can and wants, a contribution depending on your possibilities, which is very noble and fair, really good! Ivo the guy who guided us was very prepared, friendly, simple and smiling. It was a nice experience that I highly recommend to everyone! Thank you ♥️

5.00A cracking walking tour given by a knowledgeable local. Ivo’s insightful knowledge and enthusiasm was evident throughout this tour! We were a large group but Ivo looked after each of us fantastically. Please be aware that there are many steps both up and down for this tour. Thoroughly recommended but please be aware that Sofia is not an accessible city for people with some mobility issues. Fascinating architecture and layered history to see.
