“Amazing local experience not to be missed - One of the best local experiences I tried in Bulgaria. We used it in the Rhodope mountains and we learned to cook traditional food specific for the region, we milked the cows and helped the hosts in their daily activities. Absolutely superb.” - Reviewed at 2024-05-21
