Rila Monastery UNESCO day trip from Sofia with guided art, mountain views, and optional museum, cave hike, or mineral hot springs.
“The trip was very long and it tired us. However, there is nothing we can do about this as Rila Monastery is 2hrs from the city. We enjoyed our time at the monastery and it was very beautiful. The guide also took us to Boyana church even though in our booking it was not mentioned. Boyana church is beautiful, however this was extra for us as we had already visited the previous day and it took time off our day. Overall we enjoyed the trip and had an amazing time.”
Small-group Sofia day trip to Devetaki Cave, Krushuna Waterfalls, and Lovech fortress, with hotel pickup and tickets included.
“The guide was very patient, helpful and very safety-conscience. The Devetaki cave is unusual because it has several open roof sections. The deepest section is fenced off so it was difficult to see any bats. The Krushana falls are pretty but swimming is prohibited in the falls. The town of Lovech is OK and the fortress is partially ruined. The guide provided adequate at each location.”
