Sofia City sightseeing Trips

This trip helps to unravel some mysterious veil of the Balkan countries. The 7 countries we visited have so much histories to see with so many breathtaking sceneries of the old towns/cities, great traditional cultures, old historical architectural buildings of mosques, monasteries, churches and fortresses...etc., lots of very wonderful places and rich experiences for travellers to see with their own eyes.

Part 1. Igor was a good guide unfortunately after a passenger suffered a theft he was unable to conduct the tour effectively. This badly impacted two days of the tour. Bad things happen, may I suggest you increase the level of communication on passport safety, we have toured with other who maybe over emphasise theft risk pick pockets etc. Risk maybe low impact is significant. Part 2 Viktor was excellent and informative as we had two guides they could effectively deal with t tour. PARK GOLDEN VIEW Ohrid is not up to standard, the people running the hotel need to improve standards. This was notable s other hotels where of high standard. Overall this was a great tip. 1st century communication would help, if the guide is late delayed whatever a communication mechanism in the app would help maybe with an alternative SMS message for those not on-line. Itinerary says 3:00 p.m. - To join the city tour, please come to the hotel reception. I am there only to see a note saying guide is running late wait about for over an hour, bad start caused by poor communications. Dubrovnik guide left us in incorrect hotel no ability to communicate with guide, had to use app emergency contact.

I enjoyed the trip very much. The trip contained important places to visit in each city. The guides were helpful and polite. I have a few suggestions: You may want to add 1 extra day in Bulgaria as an optional or keep it for 2 days instead of one day. Also the English interpreters were always very short in description compared to the Spanish interpreters. It should be equal . Also suggest, a map of important REAS TO VISIT ON YOUR OWN to be provided each day so we are not looking for google maps and info on google to see what to visit. Hotels were excellent except for one hotel. I plan to take another trip with you but want to have some assurance that enough English speaking will be in the tour at least 10-15 and the tour guides are paying equal importance in description of our trip. Excellent coordination in picking up from airport and at all daily events. When I needed to call, I got only Spanish answers and not English and this is not helpful for an English speaking person.

I just returned from a 2 week tour of the Balkans and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Communication leading up to the tour was exceptional. Our itinerary was fast paced and comprehensive and the sights were spectacular. Accommodations were clean and amenities sufficient for the price paid for the tour. The tour leader, bus driver and the local guides were efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this travel operator, especially for off the beaten path destinations.

A great overview of eight Balkan countries with the perfect balance of organized activities and free time. Our guide Anton was the best - organized, calm and had a great sense of humor. I highly recommend. This was my first tour with this local travel operator and I will definitely be booking more tours with them.

I did this tour in April 2019 and had a wonderful experience. I loved the itinerary - it was fast-paced, but I felt like I had enough time in each country to discover their culture and history. There’s a lot of travel time, so if you don’t like long days on a bus, this tour isn’t for you. I enjoyed all the included and optional activities, and I found that even if you did all of them, you still get lots of free tiime. It was a great tour with amazing value for money. Definitely recommend!
