What you can expect

  • This 12-hour trip starts early in the morning with a pickup from the predetermined fixed point in the centre of Bucharest, followed by a walk to the foothills of the Balkan Mountains. Spend a pleasant day discovering the impressive medieval settlement of Veliko Tarnovo.

    Veliko Tarnovo was the medieval capital of Bulgaria and is home of the Tsaravets Fortress, the strongest Bulgarian fortification of the Middle Ages.
