We'll pick you up at 7:45 am at Alexander Nevsky Square. At 8 am, we head to the southeast of Bulgaria, arriving in the city of Plovdiv after approximately 2 hours. Here, you'll discover the history and culture shaped by Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and Bulgarian influences.

We'll tour the ancient city, walking through the cobbled streets and see the colourful houses. We will also visit the ancient Roman Theatre and the Regional Ethnographic Museum (entrance ticket not included).

Koprivshtitsa was the site of one of the most significant battles during Bulgaria's liberation. As you tour the city, you will sense the pride of its citizens.
