The walking tool was so informative and the guide was really engaging. He had so much to tell us and yet he managed to weave it into the story of the city. Great believer in walking tours here…. And this is up there with the best.

Excellent walking tour with Vasil. Met at Alexander Nevsky Cathedral & toured the interesting sights around the city over 2 hours. Vasil delivered a perfect amount of history and information. Would highly recommend this small group tour with him. Great value too at £15 per person.

About Sofia
Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, lies below Vitosha mountain, mixing Roman ruins, golden-domed churches, mineral springs and a busy café culture.
Sofia sits in a high basin at the foot of Mount Vitosha, and its centre layers Roman Serdica, Orthodox Bulgaria and the Ottoman and Soviet eras. The gold-domed Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, completed in the early twentieth century, is the city's best-known building. Close by are the fourth-century rotunda of St George, the Banya Bashi Mosque and the remains of Roman streets that show through glass in the metro stations.
Top-ranked sights in Sofia: Rila Monastery, Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, Ivan Vazov National Theatre.
