See the best of Bulgaria in 1 day. This self-guided, shared shuttle tour will take you to both the UNESCO Rila Monastery in the Rila National park in the morning and then in the afternoon to the city of Plovdiv - the cultural capital of Bulgaria. In the morning the shuttle bus will take you to the Rila Monastery where you have more than 1 hour to explore the site at your own pace. The complex is compact in size so the time allows to see the most important parts of it. After that in the afternoon the shared shuttle will take you on a 3.5 hours journey through the scenic mountains of Bulgaria to the city of Plovdiv - one of Bulgaria's most visited cultural and historical sites. You have more than 4.5 hours to explore the historical city center on your own. Driver will provide you with a tourist map and tips for what to see.

5.00We did the day tour to the 7 lakes and Rila Monastery and it was a success. It was not a guided tour, but our manager Philip took great care of us, he is very detailed. He received us with all the necessary information, sent us pictures marked the different routes of the trekking, provided us with a couple of folios with a map of the lakes and a small guide of the monastery... It was better than many guided tours I've ever done. I recommend it!!

1.00We were advised at short notice that the excursion was cancelled. We actually found out when we were already at the meeting place at 7 a.m. and there was no coach. I think they could report in the same way, as when you have already made an excursion, that since they want feedback they send you messages, whatsapps and emails insisting until you make it.
Amazing

5.00Beautiful experience, in one day you can see two completely different locations. From the monastery to Plovdiv the road is long enough, but it is absolutely worth it. Fundamental was our guide, Philip, who was able to give us valuable advice and was always available for clarification and curiosity
Interesting day to get a feeling of the countryside of Bulgaria

4.00We liked the tour and the tour guide (Philip) very much. Although we had to travel quite some time, is was interesting to see the countryside of Bulgaria. And all the information we received was interesting and never boring, or too long.
