Reviews: 1-day tour to Rila monastery + Boyana church in Bulgaria | explore 2 world heritage sites
Guest User2025-03-15
A fantastic experience! Both attractions are well worth visiting. Those who enjoy history and culture shouldn't miss Boyana Cathedral; it's small, but the frescoes inside are fascinating (one depicts the Last Supper, predating Leonardo da Vinci's version, with a completely different composition). Our guide, Martin, was incredibly kind and his explanations were very entertaining, like listening to a stand-up comedy routine—he really knew how to keep everyone engaged. Also, if you buy bread outside the Rila Monastery, there are three types. The best is the Traditional (middle denomination, 1 local currency). The other two are enormous, weighing a pound (750 grams)! The day before the trip, you'll receive an email with the meeting time and guide's name; arriving 10 minutes early is usually sufficient.

The tour guide was meticulous and attentive, taking good care of the elderly and even lending them his own hiking stick, which was very touching.

Customer service was able to contact us in advance, and the day trip that included two classic attractions was excellent. The itinerary was well-planned, and the tour guide was enthusiastic, professional, and provided thorough explanations throughout.

The excursion was great, thanks to Maria, our guide who is Bulgarian, but having lived in Spain for several years, speaks excellent Spanish. There was a problem with the bus, but it was resolved quite quickly. Hugs, Maria
