Overview of your Plovdiv tour

Both Plovdiv and Sofia are ancient settlements with rich history. This tour is unique as it gives you the opportunity to properly both Sofia and Plovdiv! Born in the capital, I learned it's history not only from ancient years but also I was and I am a contemporary of the changes - political and cultural since 1989 and I can transfer to you the vibe of the big place yet with its cosy parks and neoclassical buildings, sitting at a crossroad between different eras and historical events! On its turn Plovdiv, another favourite place of mine is so relaxing with the atmosphere of its Old Town bringing you back to the early 19th century in a combination with downtown attractive promenade where modern shops and Roman ruins are together in a nice composition.
