Sofia Holiday Packages

Sofia Holiday Packages

When in Sofia, don’t miss an opportunity to explore one or all of its independent mineral water springs. The city, after all, was founded because of the water’s quality and medicinal properties. Enjoying a thermal bath may no longer be an option, but it is a cultural part of Sofia that you should see. Sightseeing holiday packages in Bulgaria’s capital include a visit to museums, churches, historical buildings, monuments, parks and gardens, and other beautiful attractions. On top of all these, Sofia is the gateway to all major European cities, providing you an opportunity to extend your vacation to another travel destination.

Sofia - Holiday Tour Packages from India

With the Vitosha Mountain in the background, and the mix of Communist and European-style architecture taking centre stage, Bulgaria's capital definitely has something wonderful to offer for everyone. Whether you travel to Sofia for the history or ski resort, you will find what you are looking for during your Sofia Holiday. And there will be no need to differentiate between sightseeing & activities, either. This is because you can enjoy both in one holiday destination.

Top places to visit in Sofia

• Museums - Bulgaria's capital is home to numerous museums, most of which are included in Sofia holiday packages. With a history that dates back 2500 years ago, expect displays, exhibitions and galleries to be packed with the city's rich and colourful past. 
• Open Spaces - If your idea of sightseeing & activities involve taking a leisurely stroll in the park and watching people pass by, you will find plenty of open spaces in Sofia where you can do just that. Take a pick from Borisova Gradina to Yuzhen Park (South Park). 
• Places of Worship - Sofia is one of those places in Europe where churches are not just a place of worship, but iconic landmarks designed to be admired and appreciated. This is especially true for churches that have historical significance in the city. The Saint Sophia Church, for example, is witness to the entire history of Bulgaria. 

Things to do in Sofia

• Take a dip at any of the swimming pools in the city, most of which are open air and built outdoors. These pools become very popular during summer time.
• Treat yourself to a spa treatment. Despite having a number of hot mineral springs, Sofia's spa culture is not developed using natural resources but in hotel and spa facilities. Nonetheless, a spa session is one of the more popular things to do in the city.
• Sample the local fare from restaurants that vary from budget to high end. Bulgarian dishes have a flavour and style of their own that makes tasting them quite an adventure.
• Join a bike tour that would take you to the countryside of Sofia and the top greenest capital of Europe.
• Sign up for a Sofia hike tour that starts at the UNESCO Boyana church to the waterfalls and Lake of Boyana.

Other things to do include a pub crawl, watch the opera and ballet, and join festivals and events, if any of these happen during your vacation.  

Top attractions in Sofia

• Sveta Sofia Church - The oldest in Sofia, this church gave the city its name. Not only does it have an impressive architecture, but also a subterranean museum with an ancient necropolis and remains of other churches.
• Brisova Gradina - This is the most attractive park in Sofia, featuring statues and flower beds that create a relaxing place that is perfect for a stroll or a picnic.
• Museum of Socialist Art - This is where all the unwanted statues of Lenin are kept and put on display. Old propaganda films are also shown during your visit to this museum. Getting to this place, however, would not be easy.
