5.00The tour with Albena was so smooth and he adapted perfectly to our demands and last minutes changes. So good that we booked an extra day with her to Plovdiv.

5.00We really enjoyed our Walking Tour. Mina was our guide. She was local to Sofia. We found this tour very informative and interesting. She not only knew her history but didn’t go overboard with too much information. She had a great sense of humour too. She was also willing to take questions.
Unforgettable experience

5.00An amazing couple of days with Beni and Cveti on their Sofia Communism and Buzludzha monument tours. Both were unforgettable experiences, especially the latter where we had the site to ourselves - felt like we'd stumbled upon the remains of an alien civilisation (very Logan's run!). The tours were fun, educational, well paced, flexible, comfortable and safe - as others have said, we were made to feel more like family members than tourists. Thanks again Beni and Cveti, especially for introducing us to "Grandma's potatoes with cheese" - hope to see you soon.
Tour of Sofia in vintage Chaika car

5.00We joined the tour of Sofia in the Chaika vintage car. It was great! Albena provided a fascinating walking tour of the centre of Sofia and a chance to see all the main sights. We then joined the car for the ride to the Socialist Art Museum which was really interesting. After going for a longer drive in the car we made a trip to the Soviet War Memorial and National Palace of Culture to learn more about the Communist history of Bulgaria. Albena is a great guide. She shares the right amount of information, anecdotes and even has newspapers and documents from the era to help bring the history alive. The car was superb. Such a unique and enjoyable experience. Thank you!

5.00Beni is he best tour guide I’ve ever met. We had tour to buzludzha in winter. Beni gave us a very welcomed and thoughtful trip. The weather is extremely cold, but Beni helped us to get there. We saw the monument in the amazing snow. I’ll definitely recommend the tour for my friends.
Sofia guided walking tour

- Review from Viator
5.00We had a very friendly, approachable guide. She took her time and we were not rushed which made the experience great as we could enjoy the Sofia sights. Saw all the main parts of city center and the changing of the guard was timed perfectly for us to see. Great way to start our Bulgarian holiday. Our guide was friendly, happy to talk and answer any questions and also to stop for refreshments. Picked us up from our hotel, which was not on the booking, so that was great.

5.00I called this agency for my trip in Bulgaria and I was really happy to do it with them. Benny and Tsveti are sisters, they are kind, helpful, flexible and super funny. It was a pleasure to sightseeing with you. Thank you again for this amazing trip!
Awesome Trip to Sofia

5.00We had the chance to visit Sofia as well as the Rila monastery with Betty a few days ago. She is very nice, we had a lot of fun while discovering this beautiful city (church, mosk, Roman ruins etc.). We were luck that the weather was good. Betty really knows what she's talking about and we can see that she enjoys her job as she is happy to make people discover her country. Thanks Betty :)
