The tour was very nice. ...

The tour was very nice. We sampled 7 local wines along with a variety of different snacks that are all native to Bulgaria. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and owns a shop in Sofia. Very pleasant evening. I would highly recommend.

An excellent way to learn about Bulgarian wines

My friend and I had a private tour as nobody else booked it on this day. Pavlin is very knowledgeable about wine in general and deservedly proud of the wines of his country. He is an excellent guide and I would recommend his evening tour. His cozy wine shop Sip'n Bite (which was one of the tour stops) is certainly worth visiting.

Excellent introduction to Bulgarian wine with a personable wine professional

Even though I was the only person who happened to make a booking, Pavlin still proceeded with the tour and gave me a one-on-one experience of Bulgarian wines. We visited two wine bars/restaurants and tried a total of five Bulgarian wines. Pavlin is extremely knowledgeable about Bulgarian wine (different varieties, techniques of production, the differences in taste according to region/climate, etc.) and provided a thorough explanation of each wine. He also has an excellent knowledge of wines gl...read more

If you want to do a wine tasting, this is the one!

My daughter and I had the most wonderful evening walking through Sophia, learning about the history, culture, and wines of Bulgaria. Pavlin is exceedingly knowledgeable and personable, and by the end of the evening we felt like we were with an old friend. As someone who enjoys wine a lot, but isn't very educated on tastings or the industry, I learned so much about both as Pavlin was helpful and instructive about each wine, its region, and the history of wine in Bulgaria. This excursion was the h...read more
