A good tour to learn about the old city and its history

4.00This guided tour to the city of Sofie was quite good and gave you a overview of the old part of the city and its history. Since Sofia was just a small town with under 20000 inhabitants 150 years ago than it became the capital of independent Bulgaria the old part is a pretty concentrated. Some of the sites are very impressing, my favourite was st Georg church. There are also a lot of roman remains which always is fascinating for a Babar those ancestors lived thousands of miles from the Roman Empire. The guide was knowledgeable and nice and easy to understand.

She spoke perfect English and showed us everything a foreign tourist would want to experience when they are in Sofia and Bulgaria in general for the first time. We were very satisfied and would recommend this tour 100% to anyone who wants to learn some of the Bulgarian history and culture when they are in the country for the first time.

5.00Our tour guide Pavlina was the best! She was so knowledgeable and informative and made sure we saw all the historic sites in Sofia. She went above and beyond our tour time as it ran over a little bit but she didn’t skimp on anything. Highly recommend this tour and Pavlina!

5.00From the very first moment, the 3 hour private city tour around Sofia was very interesting, the tour guide Nikolaj was not only knowledgeable, but also full of personal stories and with a sense of humor which is very important. We would highly recommend such an experience! It was 5star plus. Martin
Fantastic! Do this tour first!

5.00Pavlina was FANTASTIC! She accommodated a schedule change when our train arrived much later than expected, and provided an amazing overview of Sofia’s downtown sites with relevant historical perspective. She is personable, funny, and energetic - like having in instant friend show you around a new city. If you have never been to Sofia, I highly recommend Pavlina as your personal guide.
