Additional Information

Our pub crawl in Sofia is unique, running every night and bringing together individuals from around the globe. It offers the chance to experience five distinctive nightlife spots in Sofia, with an emphasis on exploring hidden gems during weekdays, where you’ll gain insight into the history of some bars. Weekends, on the other hand, are reserved for larger venues for dancing and enjoyment.

This isn’t your average pub crawl - it’s a rich social platform that lets you meet new people, stray from the usual tourist trails, and unravel a fresh aspect of Sofia. Covered in this tour are several lesser-known bars that contribute a more refined nightlife exploration, devoid of excessive drinking and unruliness, and filled with intriguing facts about Bulgaria’s past. The finale is a visit to a club, with free drinks and entry included.

Cool bars! - Good choice of bars. Not to many people out because it was a Sunday, but that suited us just fine. Could have been more people at the club only. Very good guide finding the balance between being chill and getting the group moving.

Awesome way to experience Sofia's nightlife! - What a great way to experience the nightlife of Sofia! Our guide Mirela was fantastic. We ended up only having 3 people in our tour, but Mirela made it very fun and an entertaining night. Would recommend anyone coming to Sofia to enjoy a night out.

Nice experience, but we expected something more... - The tour was a great experience because we were able to discover some truly beautiful and hidden places that we would never have found on our own. We also liked what was included in the price, although in reality, there was no club at the end of the evening as we expected. The girl who accompanied us was very nice and allowed us to discover her culture, unfortunately she left quite quickly (at the 4th bar, when part of the participants were still there, which made us feel a little " abandoned") so we were a little disappointed. In fact, in our opinion the organizers could create a warmer/welcoming environment to allow us all to get to know each other a little better. In conclusion, it was a good experience, but we expected a little more since it should be organized (and not simply taken around and left behind for a bit).

Could not find. No communication. Very disappointed. - I couldn’t find anyone. Very bad communication. Meeting place given as ‘Crystal Garden’ so presumed this was a bar in the garden and not just the name of the park. Being a lone female traveller walking around a park in the dark at night and trying to find a group of people left me feeling uncomfortable. I asked at the only bar and restaurant I could find in the park but they new nothing about it. I was asking random groups of strangers if they were part of org used group which left me feeling unsafe and vulnerable. There was no specific instruction as to where exactly in the park to meet e.g. by X statue/monument, no contact details were given to call and nobody attempted to contact me to check if I was coming and could find them. Very disappointed.
