Independent private tour guide in Bulgaria. No agencies, no fixed itineraries — only custom tours for thoughtful travelers. As an independent private tour guide in Bulgaria, I offer much more than a standard itinerary. Traveling with me means experiencing the country in a personal, flexible, and authentic way. My name is Penev (known as Patrick), and I design private tours for individuals, couples, and small groups of 1–4 people. I do not operate scheduled group tours or work as a tour agency — every itinerary is personally crafted around your interests, pace, and curiosity. As your local guide, I will show you the hidden gems of Bulgaria as well as its iconic landmarks. Discover the real Bulgaria — from the cobblestone streets of Plovdiv to the ancient Thracian sanctuaries deep in the Rhodope Mountains, explored in my Exclusive Bulgaria Round Tour and Southern Bulgaria – Hidden Treasures & Thracian Heritage journeys. Whether you are interested in history, art, culture, or food and wine, I will create a journey tailored specifically for you. My goal is to offer a smooth, authentic, and unforgettable travel experience, focused on meaningful encounters rather than rushing through tourist attractions.

This tour offers a good balance between coastal scenery, history and urban exploration, making it one of the most complete day trips from Varna.
In the morning, drive north along the Black Sea coast to visit the Palace of Queen Maria in Balchik. The complex is known for its beautiful gardens, terraces and sea views, as well as for its unique atmosphere, reflecting the personal taste of the Romanian queen. The visit also includes the Botanical Garden, home to a rich collection of plants from around the world. If you are interested, a wine tasting can be arranged at the Queen’s Winery. In the afternoon, return to Varna for a city tour covering the main highlights. Visits usually include the Archaeological Museum, where the oldest gold treasure in the world is displayed, the impressive Cathedral, the remains of the Roman Baths – among the largest on the Balkans – and other sites depending on your interests and the time available.
