Velislav took us on an unforgettable excursion from Plovdiv to see the Buzludzha socialist monument and showed us some cool Thracian archaeological sites. Velislav is an amenable local tour guide with a wealth of knowledge and unique insight into Bulgarian history and culture. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Plovdiv!

We have just finished a four day tour with Velislav, which was amazing. We are an Australian couple and knew very little about Bulgarian life and their phenomenal history. Velislav unravelled this for us and could answer any questions we had and explained everything his knowledge of Bulgarian history is amazing. He was a professional and a safe driver. We did have some very heavy rain during our time and we chose not to do a couple of the sites we had arranged but Velislav was able to take us to other interesting places we had not even heard of. We highly recommend him as a great guide and someone who was a joy to explore Bulgaria with. John and Bev Wilkins.

I highly recommend the guide Velislav (Velco). We traveled with 4 adults in the Rhodope Mountains with him. The trip was lovely. Velislav has a very broad knowledge of history and geography. With his help, we also learned a lot about the life in Bulgaria. Velislav is very reliable, kind. Patient has acpassion to his job, he insisted that we will not miss any attraction and it was enjoyable and important. I highly recommend Velco as a guide.
