Long but pleasant day trip - Hotel pick-up was very convenient consider the excursion started at 08:00. We returned at the hotel around 19:00. Long day, but very relaxed. Driver / tour guide was very helpful .

Fun Day - Really great. The falls are nice and the title photo of the tour. That said, as lovely as they are the cave is the rockstar of the show and Lovetch has many interesting features. Highly worthwhile.

Beautiful scenery - Great scenic views almost non-stop. Definitely worth seeing.
Traveller warning 1 Did require an inclined hike, nothing overly strenuous but hard on children, elderly with health issues. 2 Did end up fairly remote, with the bathroom facilities becoming more and more 'rustic' - take toilet paper.

Fun Day Trip - The tour was great! It was well timed and our guide, Ivan, was very informative about each place. The falls weren't as massive as we had expected, but our guide explained that in the spring when the winter snow melt is running off they grow drastically on size (we went in early September). The cave was very cool to experience and Lovech was a fun town!

Good tour. - Nice tour. Hit a few good spots all at once.
Dimitri was very knowledgeable and friendly.
The only complaint I have of this tour is that as a solo traveler you are charged almost double.
