It was great! The tour guide Chris at the start was a bit arrogant, but later until the end of the tour,, I found him to be nice and pleasant. He is knowledgeable and had given us a massive information about the places he had taken us. His service was above and beyond. He is a great tour guide and I highly commended him.

A long but excellent day led by Lubo who was fantastic. Plovdiv is beautiful. The day was made more fun by the tour being made up of a small group of like minded people.

Plenty to see, good trip, knowledgeable guide and great scenery on the journey. Only downside was the minibus could have been better, with a more robust aircon system.

It was fantastic experience, the guide was good but he should not act based on his preconceived notions about people from certain nationalities, somewhere I felt his behaviour with me was different than for others...maybe I am wrong, overall it was good anyways.

A long drive from Sofia, and then quite a bit of walking uphill. The historical sites were quite fascinating, and the guide was personable and able to share a lot about the history of the area. This tour was unexpectedly a highlight of my visit, and strongly recommended. Also, the restaurant we visited for lunch exceeded expectations. A very nice day!

Plovdiv was definitely worth a visit. Our guide was professional and adequate and he knew his way around the city. We had sufficient free time on our own and he was able to handle and manage our group. Although we had to wait for some time for one of the members of our group which caused a delay in our trip to Koprivshtitsa. By the time we arrived, the church was closed and the houses we could visit were closing. It was an interesting town in the north, it was much colder but we liked Plovdiv more.
