Excursions in Bulgaria are one of the mainways to diversify your ski or beach holiday. Of course, there are much more opportunities to get acquainted with this country, its natural sights, national colors, rich history and architectural monuments during the summer season. Relaxing in Sunny Beach and Golden Sands, you can visit all the interesting places, go to a pirate party or a jeep safari, go fishing on a yacht, and also play paintball.
Некоторые экскурсии в Болгарии, к примеру, в The Rila Monastery and Sofia (with a stop in Plovdiv and Pleven) stretch for a couple of days, which tourists are warned about in advance. But before going on a trip to this country by bus, you need to calculate your own strength. Such trips, with rising at 6 am, as well as arriving at about 2 am, will become a burden to the kids. Some physical training requires climbing the high steps to the famous monument to the defenders, located on the Shipka Pass. In addition to a large number of stone steps, you will have to face at the very top with cold and strong wind.

Talking further about what excursions in Bulgariathe most popular, you can also highlight the city of Veliko Tarnovo - the ancient Bulgarian capital. His visit is mainly combined with a visit to the Valley of Roses, as well as a walk in the Shipka Pass. “Sound and Light” is an audiovisual performance, which everyone can visit, coming to Veliko Tarnovo with a guided tour, since this is one of the main attractions. Due to modern technologies, the medieval fortress Tsarevets comes to life.
These are inexpensive excursions in Bulgaria.Prices for them barely reach 90 euros. But choosing a route, you need to remember that there is no point in going to the Valley of Roses separately, because roses bloom here only in May-June, while Bulgarian cosmetics, the main components of which are oils of these flowers, can be purchased in almost every store.
Excursions in Bulgaria to the ancient part of the cityNessebar, protected by UNESCO, are no less interesting. They cost about thirty-six euros. At the same time, those living near Sunny Beach will pay much less for it, since Nessebar is located near the resort. But vacationers in the resort of Golden Sands can independently get to the port city of Varna and Aladzhi - a medieval monastery, since all this is located not far from the main recreation area.
Many of the fascinating places in Bulgaria can be visited without signing up for a tour. For example, to get from Golden Sands to Aladzhi on foot, you need to go a little more than four kilometers.
