The beggining of the culture tour

The tour aims to show our visitors the top 10 things one should know about our country: on the tour you’ll learn about the typical clothes Bulgarians used to wear, the music we listen to and the dances we do, the food we eat and the favourite drinks here, some of the famous people, the language that we speak and write in, the celebrations, nowadays life and our most precious symbol.

• Price: 24 leva (12 euro)
• Distance: 3,6 km
• Duration: 3 hours (breaks included)

The Communist tour started on the 9th of April with 13 guests.

Our Communist Tour in Sofia will help its guests to find out what it was like on the eastern side of the Iron Curtain. A 45 year-long period presented in only 3 and a half hours, including the reasons that led to it and its consequences. The guides will share all their knowledge of the Bulgarian communist period in a fun and interactive way. Our main goal is to present this controversial period of history in an objective and informative way.

• When:
  – April to October – Every Day at 4pm
  – November to March – Every Monday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 4pm
• Price: 22 leva (11 euro)
• Distance: 3,6 km
• Duration: 3-3,5 hours (break included)
• Where: meeting point – Palace of Justice
