Tour description

Walk with me through the highlights of central Sofia!

Let me guide you through the last 17 centuries of history, architecture, religion and more!

The tour starts from Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, St. Sophia Church, Russian Church, National Theater and Presidential Office. Round Church of St. George, St. Nedelya Church, Roman ruins, TSUM, mosque and ends at Sofia Historical Museum.

I want to get to know my hometown at a glance, discover one of the most fashionable capitals in Europe and spend pleasant moments with a local friend.
