First article about us

“So far, Bulgaria’s great!” First extensive article about Free Sofia Tour, Sofia and Bulgaria in general written by some of our guests 😉 Check out what Arwyn and Jason from Canada wrote about us in their blog EASTERN EUROPE ADVENTURES: “So far, Bulgaria’s great!” “…pointing things out we would never have noticed on our own, and giving us a very knowledgeable and entertaining history of the city and its important landmarks…” “We learned that, despite fighting on the side of the Germans in the second world war, Bulgaria never sent its Jewish population to the death camps…” “…it turns out that Cyrillic isn’t that terrifying, once you realize you have to throw out what you think the letters are and accept that what looks like a “P” is actually an “R,” “I like Bulgaria.” Read more: http://jcobham.travellerspoint.com/16/

Last chance to see the Panagyurishte Treasure

As we usually say – last chance to see The Panagyurishte Treasure before it leaves the country on another worldwide tour 🙂 The treasure is going to Plovdiv (second biggest city in Bulgaria and perfect for a one-day trip from Sofia) and then leaving for an exhibition in the US.

Best in Sofia may be yet to come

SOFIA – The architectural heart of ancient Serdica, the Roman Empire-era predecessor of Bulgaria’s capital of Sofia, is emerging amid excavations for the construction of the city metro system. In a couple of years, the finds will become part of an underground museum where visitors will be able to walk in the footsteps of Constantine the Great (272-337 AD), the first Roman emperor to legalise Christianity and adopt it himself.
