The place is wonderful, both Monastery and the Rila lakes hiking. Our guide was a very nice and friendly guy. I’m happy with the trip.
Thank you, Maya, for the safe tour around Rila. *** I went self-guided, at a faster pace and managed to reach the peak for the amazing scenery. It’s a great tour package to grasp Bulgarian mountains and the remarkable monastery. Otherwise: Neat van. Great assistance on clarifying any questions.
