Had an amazing walking tour with tour guide Yanislav. Top man with a lot of interesting stories and historical facts. Was very clear in his explanation and was indeed very knowledgeable in his field.

My friend and I really enjoyed our guided tour of the city- we were lucky enough that no one else booked that day, but I would imagine this to be busier in the summer. Our guide was so thorough and passionate about Sofia- we could tell he really knew his stuff! It was lovely to have the breakfast mid way through as it meant we could sit down and enjoy the city before carrying on. I would definitely recommend this tour if the weather is good!

Our guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and accommodating, we saw areas that we had not previously seen and were really pleased with this aspect of the tour.
However we did not get a 3 hour tour as advertised, ours only lasted for two hours and we didn't get any 'breakfast, food tasting or beverages' which was really disappointing, we were glad we had something to eat before we started the tour. This was no fault of our guide's, he was unaware of this when we questioned him about it.

We had a fantastic time on this tour. We were lucky that day we had to see a local wedding party at the same time we were there. Our guide Chimmy was wonderful host. She took us around the places we haven't seen earlier in Sofia. She was wonderful guide. We would definitely recommend the tour.

Visita interesante si quieres conocer el centro de Sofía. Visita muy cara para los precios del país, però yo la recomiendo.
