    The tour guide Asen was amazing. Very knowledgeable, interesting and fun. Would thoroughly recommend a small group tour (there were 8 of us).

    It was a perfect tour. Ventsislav is a very good guide and he also was very helpfull. We went first to Bashkovo, then to the fortress and finally we had plenty of time in Plovdiv before returning to Sofia.Thanks!

    I booked this trip Friday evening for next day Saturday. The ride was nice and easy.
    We chose the English guided tour with Dimitri who was very knowledgeable and kind.
    On the bus we had a group of Italians who booked the wrong trip and they were upset that the guide did not speak Italian. I would recommend to the company to add some explanation of services in Italian to avoid further miscommunications.
    Anyway, the trip was nice and a well spent one day .

    My taste buds are still tingling from this tour! I was lucky enough to be the only person signed up so I had my own private tour. Iliya was a consummate guide – full of information on local traditions and of course the delicious Bulgarian food. First stop was the farmer’s market where I was tasked with buying certain products and had to try to speak only Bulgarian which was a cool, unique experience. Iliya then took us to some authentic, out of the way places where we tried Banitsa (my favourite), Halva (actually, this could have been my favourite), special tea, rose jam, and many other traditional foods (I don't want to give away too much) finishing with a honey degustation. There was so much food and I even got to take some leftovers away with me. This was such a good value tour, not rushed, and I feel like I’ve had a genuine Bulgarian experience. Special mention that as a solo person I didn’t have to book for 2 people (like most other tours). You won’t regret booking this tour – it was the best thing I did in Plovdiv! All the best to you Iliya and Daniel and hopefully you’ll have your cooking class up and running by the next time I’m in Plovdiv.

    This was one of several tours I booked with Plovdiv Tours - all excellent. Stoyan is a fantastic guide, his English is great and he has a good command of the history and culture of Bulgaria.
    This tour is absolutely worth doing. We had a lovely authentic Bulgarian meal at a mountain hut at Wonderful Bridges before taking the hike down to the river to fully take in the immensity of these natural features. The sweeping views of the Rhodope mountains from Asen's Fortress are stunning and the Bashkovo Monastery is a jewel. Highly recommend!

    Stoyan is a knowlegable & informative guide who made for an enjoyable day seeing the monastery & fortress. He also was happy to answer any questions regarding Bulgarian life & culture. He went out of his way & above & beyond to help when we had a family emergency & needed to get to the airport quickly to return home. We would highly recommend using Plivdiv Trips whilst you are in Bulgaria.

    What a lovely day spent in beautiful Plovdiv. Our guide, Simeon, was wonderful: kind and courteous, and a very careful driver. He was thoughtful to give us ideas of where to visit in the town after our guided tour and where to eat lunch. The architecture there is very historical and different. It was a nice relaxing day and would highly recommend.

    We were in Sofia and were looking for an affordable way to visit Plovdiv for a day with some customers. We booked the privately-guided option and Stoyan provided such a service that our customers enjoyed so much. Totally recommend this tour.
