Plovdiv & Koprivshtitsa Day Tour
Plovdiv & Koprivshtitsa Day Tour
We'll pick you up at 7:45 am at Alexander Nevsky Square. Then, at 8 am, we head to the southeast of Bulgaria, arriving in the city of Plovdiv after travelling for about 2 hours. Here, you'll discover the history and culture that has developed in this region over many centuries. The mix of Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and Bulgarian culture is perfectly reflected in each of its buildings and monuments.
We'll tour the ancient city, walking through the cobbled streets and seeing the colourful houses. We'll also go to the ancient Roman Theatre, one of the city's architectural jewels, and the Regional Ethnographic Museum (entrance ticket not included).
We resume the trip and head to the city of Koprivshtitsa. Situated to the north of Plovdiv, this charming city contains an incredible history which you'll hear about from our guide as you discover the gorgeous houses in eye-catching colours.
Koprivshtitsa was also the scene of one of the most important battles in the liberation of Bulgaria. As you tour the city, you'll feel the sense of pride in its citizens.
Following a day brimming with culture and knowledge, we return to Sofia, where arrival at Alexander Nevsky Square is scheduled between 6:30 and 7 pm.

Koprivstitsa cannot be visited during the winter season due to heavy snowfalls.
