        Simply excellent 👌 - It was an excellent day, the time passed very quickly, the group was little but very nice. It was a flexible tour adjusted to the needs and interests of the group. The guide Ventislav is nice, easy going,  proactive, and very helpful. I met people who regularly attend his tours.

        Strolling back into history! - The best part was going to Arbanasi Church!  The frescoes were absolutely beautiful!
Lots of walking at the Veliko Tarnovo Fortress but it was a very interesting historical site!

        A day in Veliko Tarnovo - The tour was fantastic and our guide was even better. I wish we could do more tours here in Bulgaria. Hard to tour guide on this tour was just the best. I would highly recommend him taking this tour with him.
