Martin was very... - Martin was very enthusiastic and the whole day was fascinating. There never seems to be enough time to see everything, but it's a great combination if you don't have much time in Bulgaria.

Great tour guide and itinerary - The tour guide Martin was very engaging and fun, and took us on a detailed guided tour through both Plovdiv and Koprivshtitsa, providing lots of useful information. Driver was on time and safe. Plovdiv is stunning, with a great vibe and Roman ruins, and definitely worth a visit, and Koprivshtitsa is a small city in the mountains with a lot of history, that feels like going back in time a hundred years. Highly recommend this tour.

Worthwhile tour if you have time to see more areas outside the city. - Great day out. Worth exploring beyond the city to learn & enjoy. Guide & driver were good. Easy location for the meeting point in the morning even though it was still dark based on October season. Recommend if time is short to explore beyond the city.

Liubomir was a driver and an educator — and excellent at both! - This was the third day trip I’ve been fortunate enough to take from Sofia and the first one where I felt like I had actually learned something. The itinerary was flawless and Liubomir did an excellent job taking his time to explain things to our small group. I felt like he went the extra mile and I’m grateful for his diligence and patience. I actually preferred Koprivshtitsa to Plovdiv and felt like the extended day trip was well-worth the additional money and drive-time. This was a really pleasant day trip and one that I highly recommend.

BEST TOUR GUIDE OF THE CITY - my boyfriend and I booked this tour last minute and it was AMAZING! the organization of the entire tour was outstanding. We felt safe, comfortable and our tour guide, Maria was so so good! She had amazing facts that kept us very engaged throughout the entire day. If you are visiting, you absolutely must visit Plovdiv!!!!!

A great way to get to know what’s around Sofia - Various and well organized tours. I recommend visiting Plovdiv with Maria, an experienced Guide, very competent and who always has plenty of interesting information to tell about Bulgaria in general. I have learned a lot!

Plodviv was worth it - Plovdiv is the more interesting place of the 2 stops. It's a pretty, quaint town with some history. Koprivahika is important historically but not much to see. It was a far drive to not see or learn much.

Not worth it - Very simple tour. Plovdiv is not worth visiting. The same with the other city. It’s a long day and it is not worth the time and money.
