Dear travelers, It is my pleasure that you are reviewing my profile and tours. I am a licensed tour guide, graduated in International Tourism - MBA. I am also a member of the Association of Bulgarian Tour Guides. Since 2002 I have gained the experience of creating tailor made itineraries and/or routes, professionally organize and do individual tours around Bulgaria, acting both as a driver and a tour guide. In the same time a am a proud father of two young boys, who, hopefully I will be able to show the world once they are grown up enough :) My services include guiding - giving the travelers rich historical and cultural information about the whole of Bulgaria, driving - providing airport transfers, as well as transfers to Bulgaria neighboring countries - Bucharest (Romania), Edirne, Istanbul (Turkey), Thessaloniki (Greece), Skopje, Ohrid (Republic of Macedonia - F. Y. R. O. M) Belgrade (Serbia) By choosing a personal tour guide you are actually choosing to have personal service, caring attitude and to receive up-to-date information about the daily life - a review over the economics, arts, education and health care in Bulgaria. I can also provide interpreting and translating services having more than 10 years experience. Licensed tour guide, licence #00384, issued by Ministry of Tourism of Republic of Bulgaria.

The tour was designed for those of you who always appreciate the miracles that Mother Nature has created! In Bulgaria have been discovered about 5100 caves and 57 of them have been turned into tourist sites. On this tour we'll visit Prohodna (Eyes of God), Devetashka and the Saeva dupka caves, presenting the combination of a typical cave with stalactites and stalagmites, easy to walk around and the Prohodna cave, which is stunning with the two openings at the top of it which looked up from a certain angle do look amazingly like the Eyes of God! Neither of the caves requires any special training except the usual proper shoes and some warm light jacket. Do not forget your cameras or binoculars!
Starting from your hotel in the morning we'll hit the "Hemus" highway taking us to the Northern Bulgaria, driving along some tunnels, going across the mountain Stara Planina. - In about 120 km (80 miles), 1 1/2 hours we will enter the Eyes Of God cave, where we'll admire the creativity of Mother Nature and the amazing sight of the "eyes of God" looking from above us. - Then we'll take about a 30-minute drive to the Saeva dupka cave and will enter one of the most beautiful caves in Bulgaria. The visit takes around 40-50 minutes where well have a local guide to give us the history of the formation of the cave and some more explanations regarding the stalactites and the stalagmites, the terrain, some legends. - Optional - we may visit the Glozhene monastery established in the early 13th century, survived the Ottoman empire period, landed on a rock with a fantastic view across the Danubian plain from the altitude of about 900 m above the sea level. - Planned returning to Sofia about 6 pm.
