Highly recommend this tour! - This was an unforgettable experience.
Guided by Dobrin, our group learned a ton about the rich biodiversity of Bulgaria's forests. We had so much fun roaming through the trees and trying our best at mushroom hunting. (and I was amazed at Dobrin's ability to see the mushrooms I didn't.)
The highlight was preparing a delicious meal using our foraged finds. This tour blended nature, culture, and cuisine, for one of my favourite excursions, on my trip to Bulgaria.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic and immersive experience in Bulgaria with a tour guide who is passionate and knowledgeable.

A highly enjoyable and informative experience! - Dobrin is a master of Bulgaria's diverse and multifaceted landscapes. My wife and I spent the day trekking through the lush Balkan forests foraging a variety of fungi all the while trying our best to absorb as much of his encyclopedic knowledge as we could. Such a unique and memorable experience I'd recommend for all ages and anyone who loves mycology, nature, hiking, or even just having great chat over a homemade meal in the great outdoors.

A truly unique experience - A very high quality activity that is truly unique. Dobrin has amazing knowledge of the different flora and fauna and is clearly passionate about the work. He also took the trouble to help pick us up at our own appartment and take a small detour for some bug repellant. The tour itsself is great fun and eating the hearthy food made from your own foraged ingredients is just the cherry on top. Would 100% recommend

Dobrin was an excellent... - Dobrin was an excellent guide, and clearly was passionate about what he does. We had a lovely hike around the forest in the outskirts of Sofia. He told us a little about what he does with the various things he forages, and the different properties of the plants he uses. At the end, he made us a delicious lunch with fresh, local foods. It was a unique experience, and Dobrin was an excellent host.

Incredible forest to table energy experience - Dobrin is a brilliant forager and multi talented guide and cook! This definitely was the highlight of our trip and it didn’t hurt that the. Autumn leaves were in full color in the national park above Sofia.
If you like the outdoors, eating direct from the earth, you must do this tour!!!

A Walk for Goodness - This tour was a special one for those who are culinary enthusiasts. Picture walking through the mountainside of Bulgaria with an expert guide who educates about different forms of mushrooms and their medicinal benefits. We picked a hearty mushroom and had a wonderful opportunity to cook it with polenta and other Bulgarian spices. Definitely a must do!
