• Exhilarating Trip To the Summit of Vistosha Mountain

  I'm normally too lazy to write reviews but I feel compelled to share my experience. I was in Sofia for some dental work and found myself with a free day and was looking for a trip to Vitosha. I was fortunate to choose this one and found myself as the only person on the trip. Everything about the experience was top notch. The price was very reasonable. Communication was excellent. Punctuality was exemplary. My guide Simeon was perfect company; intelligent, friendly and patient. On arrival after a short walk Simeon offered my 3 options for our hike and after discussing the pro and cons I decided to go with the hike up to the Black Peak (the summit of Vitosha). I've never done a hike in snow before and am getting on a bit now so appreciated Simeon going at my pace and always being attentive regarding my well being. The path to the summit is well marked by posts and it took about an hour. Near the summit the wind was biting cold and I did find myself wishing I'd put another pair of socks on! Once we reached the summit there is a building and I was quite relieved at the opportunity to step out of the wind for a while. Then to my surprise Simeon opened a door and we walked into a lovely cosy room serving drinks and food. Wow I can only say this felt like heaven! We thawed ourselves and soaked up the ambience for about 30 mins before setting off back down the mountain. Now on the way back down the weather had deteriorated considerably into a full blown blizzard. The guide markers were barely visible and everything was white floor to ceiling. The wind was intense. I never felt in danger but it was easy to imagine a situation where bad things happen such were the conditions (so always prepare appropriately). Eventually we made it safely back to Aleko Hut for some well needed respite and food. To end the trip we had a magical walk back through the snowy alpine forest past the stone river and back to the car. Overall I had a thoroughly enjoyable, exhilarating and memorable experience. Simeon kindly even dropped me back off at the airport rather than my hotel. Thankyou Simeon for a perfect day!

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Incredible snowshoeing experience in Vitosha

  I had an excellent snowshoeing experience with Simeon and cannot recommend him highly enough. From the outset, he was professional, punctual, and extremely well organised. He quickly understood my preferences and adapted the day to match my walking pace and level, ensuring I felt comfortable and supported throughout. Simeon is not only very knowledgeable about the mountains and snow conditions, but also genuinely kind, attentive, and calm in his approach. The experience was never rushed; everything was thoughtfully paced, allowing me to fully enjoy the landscape and the time on the mountain. It was a truly memorable day, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Simeon to anyone looking for a skilled, reliable, and personable snowshoeing guide.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Wonderful snowshoe hike near Sofia

  This was an amazing experience and a highlight of our first visit to Sofia. Vitosha National Park is very close to the city and absolutely beautiful when covered in snow. We were lucky to have great weather. We were a bit hesitant as my husband has a bad knee, but our guide Simeon was very caring and supportive, and we managed the hike comfortably from Aleko Hut back to the parking area. The trail was stunning, especially the snowy trees and river stones. A must-do if you’re visiting Sofia!

  My visit to Vitosha National Park was a great experience. There was snow, which made the landscape amazing and the walk even more special. Also, our guide Simon was an excellent person, very kind, helpful, and always attentive, which made the visit even better.
