Sofia City Tour & Boyana Church with an Old-Timer
Overview of the tour in Sofia
Enjoy an unforgettable walk through one of the oldest cities in Europe!
Sofia will be happy to present you with its millennial history; it will be eager to retell you about the nations that have passed and some that stayed here. Last but not least, it will captivate you with an incredible nature.
During the tour, you will find out the following:
- Hidden facts about the history of Sofia and Bulgaria
- Why you shouldn't worry when you're late

As well as many other interesting facts about life on the navel of the Balkan Peninsula.
