January 23, 2020Jewish Tour: just launched and absolutely excellent! My partner and I went on this 2h (approx) tour of Sofia which runs twice a week (Sunday at 11am + 1 other day). Guided by Slyvian, himself Jewish, took us around Sofia at a gentle pace, explaining the history of the Jews and how different tribes had come to settle in Sofia at different times (both Ashkenazi and Sephardic). Our guide had a really engaging manner and through his story telling I understood a lot more about the Jewish people’s history, whilst getting to see old gravestones, the current synagogue, interspersed with some of the history of Bulgaria. Fascinating and really interesting. I’m glad I went.
