Plovdiv Audio-Guided Day Trip
Tour Details
Having met up near the Vasil Levski Square in Sofia at the designated time, hop on the bus and set off on the 2-hour journey to the oldest inhabited city in Bulgaria.
Upon arrival at Plovdiv, you'll be surprised by the number of ancient monuments that are still so well preserved. Chosen to be the European Capital of Culture in 2019, this city south of Sofia is home to a unique wealth of history and architecture.
Stroll through the narrow cobbled streets of the picturesque old town, where you can enjoy some impressive views at the top of the three hills.
The main highlight of Plovdiv is its 2nd-century Roman amphitheatre, considered one of the largest structures in the Ancient Roman Empire. You'll enter the remains of this incredible construction and learn about its history thanks to the informative audio guide.
You can then continue your route by visiting the elegant Dzhumaya Mosque, with 9 domes and an interior fountain surrounded by four pillars. Finally, you can enjoy some free time to try the local food or do some shopping at the local stores.
After an unforgettable day, you'll hop back on the bus and arrive at the starting point after a total of 8 hours.
