Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Rila Mountains, Rila Bulgaria

We will drive to a charming little village nestling in the towering Rila Mountain. The mayor himself will greet you, and then you will have the chance to stroll around the authentic village or to take a 4x4 old-fashioned Russian military vehicle and go up the current of Maritsa River. While admiring the breathtaking views that will open for you, you will have a moment of peacefulness to enjoy the beautiful atmosphere of singing birds and roaming wildlife. Your morning cup of tea made entirely by local herbs will be served on the top of the Red Rock – a landmark which vividly keeps dozens of legendary stories beneath its stunning beauty.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Rila Mountains, Rila Bulgaria

After we go back to the village, you will have the opportunity to learn about our cooking traditions and to participate in the preparation of the famous bean dish from this area. The cooking class will be conducted in the gardens of our host’s beautiful authentic house where your traditional lunch along with the specialties you have prepared will be served. All the dishes are cooked by the host family themselves who use the magic of their self-grown products to obtain the most delicious tastes. For dessert, you can go raspberry picking in the fields nearby (June – September) and enjoy the sweet flavors of the local raspberry wine, rakiya, and jam produced only in this area.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Самоков, Бистрица 6А, 2000 Tsentar, Samokov, Bulgaria

On our way back to the capital, we will make a short stop in the small town of Samokov, to see the beautiful wood-carved ceiling and ornamental decoration of a 19th-century traditional Bulgarian house which belonged to one of the most famous Jewish families in Bulgaria.

Duration: 30 minutes
