In only a few hours this tour takes you from Bucharest to the foothills of the Balkan Mountains where the impressive medieval settlement of Veliko Tarnovo is located. The tour will start with a visit to the remarkable medieval capital of Veliko Tarnovo, built high on the surrounding hilltops, full of medieval charm.

Once you have explored Veliko Tarnovo and enjoyed lunch, the tour will continue to the city of Ruse, one of Bulgaria's most elegant cities, boasts a touch of Central European grandeur rarely found elsewhere in the country. It's a city embellished with grand belle époque buildings and carefully tended green squares, reminiscent of a petite piece of Vienna that has gracefully made its way down the Danube.

While exploring Romania, be sure not to overlook the incredible chance to explore Bulgaria, another enchanting destination easily accessible through guided day trips from Bucharest!

Lucian , our guide was very knowledgeable and an excellent driver under some challenging conditions in regards to Bulgarian traffic . He was always available without being imposing. We learned a lot about Bulgaria that would not be available without personal interaction
An enjoyable and pleasant trip to Bulgaria

This was a wonderful trip. Though long and tiring, the trip allowed us to see Bulgaria, its countryside and some lovely towns and compare the country with Romania. The guide, Lucian, was fantastic. His knowledge, care, and great sense of humor made the trip particularly enjoyable. The border crossing into Bulgaria was a long and agonizing wait of more than 2 hours. But everything else went very well. The tour was well planned and carefully organized. I would certainly recommend this tour.

I really enjoyed listening to our guide, Lucien and the tour itself was ok. However, the bridge is under construction on the Bulgarian side, going one direction at a time, and while this is not the fault of the operator, it does add several frustrating hours to the journey,
Good tour to see several sites in a day

Lunch time was rushed. We didn't have time to look around in shops afterwards. Bring snacks to keep on the bus to balance out time restraints. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable of the region. Only reason giving 3 stars is because we could've had an extra 30 minutes to look around after lunch. Traffic is pretty insane so, be prepared to sit in traffic even in rural areas. Traffic is probably why time is more limited due to return time. Good tour to see several things in a short amount of time.
