Balkan Loop Tour: Sofia – Nis – Skopje – Sofia (2 Days)

  ThanK You so much for a beautiful trip in RILA e BOYANA, thanks a lot to Gheorghie very helpful guide, see You next time we'll fly to Bulgaria!

  I was so thankful to this company for running the trip despite the fact that I was the only person going. My guide, Michael, was brilliant. He drove incredibly safely... read more despite the difficult driving conditions (lots of snow and windy mountainous roads). He is clearly an experienced driver.

The views from the road were epic and he stopped frequently to break up the journey at service stations. My guide was very informative and told me lots about Bulgaria and North Macedonia while we travelled.
He then showed me lots of tourist attractions when we arrived in the city including Mother Theresa’s memorial house, museums, statues and the old town. Michael’s English is superb and he explained everything very clearly.

The old town has great shopping options- lots of antique shops, a market and authentic places to eat. You can also visit the mosque in the old town. I bought a painting for a euro and some hand-knitted slippers for around the same price. I also bought a hand-woven carpet for a reasonable price so I was very pleased. The souvenirs were better in Macedonia than in Sofia from what I saw.

The view from the fortress is very picturesque. I took some nice photos of mountains, the mosque and the cross on the hill from here.
The trip lasted for around 12 hours in total and I would recommend it. Thank you

  I had a big event to run in Sofia with a pre-event tour for 50 people and a post-event tour for 30 people. V-Travel handled the whole lot. They were... read more incredibly professional and friendly, even though I kept changing the numbers and adding things ;)

Our first tour took 50 people to Boyana Church and the Rila - everyone loved it!

Our second tour took 30 people from our hotel in Sofia into Plovdiv, taking some people back on the same day to Sofia and the rest on to Istanbul the next day.

The staff at V Travel were great. The drivers were lovely - shout out to the drivers who somehow managed to get our coach into a tiny street in Istanbul. It wasn't easy, but they did it with humour and grace , and all the passengers cheered them when we arrived.

Thank you, Victor! And thank you to all your staff.
