Highlights
This is not a standard tour. This is a private expedition led by a real scientist (zoologist, botanist, ornithologist etc.) depending on what you want to see and learn. You choose: wildlife tracking with a zoologist, vulture conservation with an ornithologist, botanical walks with a botanist, or mountain hiking with a local expert. We'll design the day around your interests. No fixed itinerary. No rushing. Just real nature, real science, and a day that fits what you're curious about. Perfect for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone who wants to experience Bulgaria's wild side with an expert by their side.

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.
