It was a wonderful experience- the guide was very knowledgeable and took care of us very well. He was very good with kids. Kept them entertained and answered all their questions. He took care of each and every requests. Definitely recommend the extra money for a private tour.

The hike was perfect. We had perfect weather for the end of October. Also the Monastery is worth to see. So much history and great nature.

This was a fun day trip from Sofia, combining the history of Rila and the geology and short hike of the Stob Pyramids. Our car was comfortable and our guide, Angel, a good driver. His English was very good and we learned a lot about Bulgarian history and Rila's story. He knew a place to park near Rila that allowed us to approach it via a short pretty walk through the woods as travelers would have arrived for centuries. Rila is unique and lovely - a must see if you visit Sofia. Angel took us to a riverside restaurant for a delicious lunch, then on to the Stob rock formations. Reaching them requires a quite steep 20 minute walk on a pitted trail. They are interesting but not overwhelming, but it was nice to be outside after a few days in the city.

Excellent opportunity to explore beyond Sofia for the day. A mini hike to the Stob Pyramids in a very tranquil setting and then on to the stunning Rila Monastery. Great lunch by the river. My guide, Orlin, was top notch: thoroughly knowledgeable about the places we visited, excellent English, very engaging. Arranged a detour to visit a winery so I could learn more about local wines and pick up a bottle or two. Punctual, very comfortable vehicle. Entirely recommended!

I can not recommend this tour enough. Our group was fortunate enough to have an incredibly knowledgeable tour guide, Nikola, who made the tour even greater then our expectations. We hiked up to St Ivans Cave instead of the Stob Pyramids however this was a very good experience. It is worth taking comfortable footwear with a bit of grip to make the hike easier. The Monastery itself is breath taking, hidden away in the mountains of Bulgaria. The local food tasting was delicious and a perfect end to our trip. This tour is definitely worth taking a day out of your trip for.
