    The destinations are great, however perhaps because of the higher number of people in the group, time stretched, from hotel check-ins, to meals. As a result, time was taken off on sightseeing.

    Our guide Crina was very good. I was satisfied with the itinerary. My biggest complaint is the Sofia hotel being so far away from the city centre. I also think we spent too long in Velika Tarnovo and could have left for Plovdiv earlier.

    The tour itself was good, however the tour guide was frustrating and had poor english leading to some confusion in the tour group. Sometimes tha talking seemed endless, repeating himself multiple times
