Description

Embark on a memorable day trip from Bucharest, Romania, to explore the highlights of northern Bulgaria. After a scenic one-hour drive, you’ll cross the Danube River, the second largest river in Europe, and enter Bulgaria, where fascinating history and culture await.

Your first stop is the UNESCO-listed Ivanovo Rock-Hewn Churches, nestled in the picturesque Valley of the Rusenski Lom River. Marvel at the remarkable thirteenth and fourteenth-century frescoes that make these cave churches a true cultural treasure.

Continue your journey to Veliko Tarnovo, known as the "City of Tsars" and one of Bulgaria’s most beautiful cities. Wander the charming, narrow streets, admire the medieval architecture, and explore the imposing Tsarevets Fortress with its historic palace ruins and a church adorned with intriguing modern art.

Savor authentic Bulgarian cuisine and local wines at a carefully selected restaurant in Veliko Tarnovo, offering you a true taste of the region’s culinary delights. After lunch, visit the nearby village of Arbanassi, famous for its peaceful atmosphere and preserved medieval buildings.

The tour concludes with a comfortable return to Bucharest. This small-group experience includes transportation, guided visits, and all entrance fees, but meals and personal expenses are not included. Secure your spot now for an unforgettable cultural adventure from Bucharest into Bulgaria!
