Nessebar stands as one of the oldest towns in Bulgaria, boasting a rich heritage that has earned it a prestigious place on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage list since 1983. This guided walking tour invites you to explore the charming old quarter, which is uniquely situated on a rocky peninsula connected to the mainland by a narrow isthmus.
