Experience Details

During this day we will try to introduce to you the philosophy and history of this ancient and beautiful city Plovdiv. The locals are calling this way of thinking “Aylak”. There is no single definition of this word but in general, it means “Don’t Worry, Be Happy“. You will have guided visits to the main historical sites in the old part of Plovdiv, including some interesting museums. In the afternoon, you will enjoy the unique atmosphere of the city in the part called “The trap” where you will try a good local craft beer and relax. When we finish with the Old town we will continue our adventure toward the oldest brewery in Bulgaria. It was established in 1881 and still is one of the biggest beer producers in Bulgaria. We will visit their craft microbrewery, situated in the remains of the old production facilities. You will have the chance to taste their best beers, to have a guided visit to the production area, and to have a great lunch in their restaurant.

What You’ll Experience

1

Plovdiv Old Town

The tour starts with pick up from your hotel/accommodation in Sofia. After approximately an hour and a half drive, we will reach Plovdiv. Plovdiv is said to be the oldest continuously inhabited city in Europe. The city has cultural and economic significance both in the past and in the present due to its strategic location. Pieces of evidence of its millennial history can be found all over the place – from the Roman Theatre to the Ottoman mosques. This is the reason why Plovdiv is one of the most charming sights in Bulgaria- wherever you look you will find history, a legend from different period, traces of glorious past and at the same time, it’s a pleasure to see how vivid is it still and how it continues to develop and writes its new history. There we will visit the highlights – the Roman Theatre, the Roman Stadium and have a walk in the Old Town with typical for the Revival Period house museums and narrow cobblestone streets.
