Customer Reviews
Philph was a wonderfull tourguide we had a lot of fun on the tour. The spa was amazing to experience, the monastery was a once in alife time experience, 5 stars worth
Amazing trip! Phillip was awesome. Definitely the best way to go if you’re wanting to have a day trip out of Sofia that’s both in nature and relaxing. The pools were great - I only used the hot pool because I preferred less chlorine. The monastery was lovely. Our guide took us somewhere special and we had less time at the monastery which was perfect because the extra stop was so special - the cave where St John lived. Phillips passion, friendliness and attunement to us and our needs was top level and I wouldn’t recommend going anywhere else. Thank you thank you!!! BYO towel, food at pools is okay, bring cash for deposits at pool, monastery also only takes cash for souvenirs
We did the monastery and spa springs trip with Philippe. He was an outstanding guide and went deep into Bulgarian history and brought a fresh approach to the spiritual history as well. Our tour was one of the best parts of the whole trip and I highly recommend- particularly with this guide!
