We had a wonderful few hours with Dara. She was so knowledgeable and friendly, and taught us a lot about the city and the cuisine. We ate at four different places and the food was excellent at all of them. Highly recommend this tour!

Had a great tour with Daniella, who was so friendly, informative and fun! Would recommend to anyone. We learned a lot about Sofia that wasn’t in the articles we had read.

Very informative and tasty walking tour of Sofia taking in some of the best sites and food experiences in the capital. The host Dany was very knowledgeable and likeable and made the whole experience most enjoyable. The markets are full of life and colour and Dany was able to answer pretty much any question on the history of the country.

Our guide was very enthusiastic and provided lots of information. The food stops were great, especially the Tarator, chilled cucumber and dill soup.

Loved this tour! Dany was a fantastic guide and a wonderful representation of the people of Sofia. The food was excellent, couldn't recommend more. My only advice is that you go with an empty stomach ;)

Esther_L

Apparantly this tour was not given since 2019 and some markets closed in these 3 years, so when we met the tour guide, he said we were the only ones and the tour will be a little different. Well we got such a fun and interesting private tour, he showed us everything along the way and even extra information about the things we saw. During the tour we ate/drank a few things, and he explained every dish to the detail. 10/10 recommend
