5.00Yan was an exceptional travel guide—knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely engaging. His deep understanding of Sofia’s history was matched by his ability to present it in a fresh, youthful perspective that made the experience both educational and enjoyable. Yan’s enthusiasm was contagious, and his genuine approach made the tour feel personal rather than scripted. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to truly connect with the history and culture of Sofia.
Fun tour

5.00I had a great time in this tour, I learned history, I laughed with the tour guide sense of humor. The information and the good vibe created by the tour guide made this tour really a fun experience. There are many historical facts and the places visited pretty much covered 90% of all the places one should see in this city. The pace of the tour was good, not too slow and not too fast.
Great way to start your visit to Sofia
