Communist Flashback with Ela
2h30
About this activity
Itinerary
I invite you to discover what it was like to be an ordinary Bulgarian during Communism.
The idea is also to present you a native point of view, not just the historical side, but human stories, including my personal ones (from friends and family). So if you have wondered what was life behind the Iron Curtain, feel free to ask me questions :)
I will take you to one regular flat(museum) that teleports you in Communist Bulgaria and we will socialize in a bar with communist style afterwards.
In addition, you can try typical Bulgarian drinks and appetizers.
I will show you some significant for the communist era buildings on our way.
Friendly company, guide explanations, authentic experience and local tastes guaranteed :)

I met Ela on another tour of hers. She was very knowledgeable and friendly and as I was very curious about communism in Bulgaria, I decided to book this tour too. And I didn't regret at all :) We visited a communist museum flat and a communist bar (I also tried local drinks) but the best part was that she was telling authentic personal stories except for the explanations as a guide. Definitely recommend!
