About this activity

Combine two of Bulgaria's most culturally rich destinations on a single 10-hour private tour from Sofia: the Roman-era city of Plovdiv (2019 European Capital of Culture) and the meticulously restored 19th-century National Revival town of Koprivshtitsa. Travel at your own pace with a dedicated guide who tailors the experience to your interests.

Full day (10 hours) private combo tour to the 2 of the most beautiful towns in Bulgaria - Plovdiv, and Koprivshitsa. The European Capital of Culture for 2019 is a must-see destination and the revival town of Koprivshtitsa is something not to miss while in Bulgaria.

Travel with your own private guide and take the tour at your own pace and interests. 

Highlights

  • Explore Plovdiv's ancient Roman theatre and multi-layered Old Town with Ottoman and Byzantine heritage
  • Discover Koprivshtitsa's preserved merchant houses and revolutionary history during Bulgaria's National Revival period
  • Private guide customizes the itinerary based on your preferences and pace
  • Visit Bulgaria's most significant cultural sites in a single comprehensive day trip
  • Experience authentic local storytelling and historical context from your personal guide

Insider tips

  • Start early in the day to maximize time in both towns and avoid afternoon crowds at Plovdiv's main sites
  • Wear comfortable walking shoes—both Koprivshtitsa and Plovdiv's Old Town involve cobblestone streets and steep hills
  • Ask your guide to recommend lunch spots in either town; local restaurants in Koprivshtitsa offer traditional Bulgarian cuisine at good value

Good to know

  • Private tour includes dedicated guide; vehicle and driver provided for transport between Sofia and both destinations
  • Estimated 2–2.5 hours of driving combined; allow multiple hours for exploration in each town
  • Bring water, sun protection, and layers—Koprivshtitsa sits at higher elevation and can be cooler
  • Old Town areas are steep and uneven; mobility-limited visitors should discuss accessibility with supplier before booking
