Explore Sofia's compact yet vibrant center on two wheels with a private guide who reveals the city's parks, landmarks, and local character at a pace that lets you absorb far more than walking alone. This 3-hour active tour combines efficient sightseeing with the freedom and intimacy of cycling through Bulgaria's tree-lined capital.
Sofia’s city center is not very large and it can easily be visited on foot, but a lot more interesting and fulfilling will be a bike ride, especially if it includes a tour of the capital’s parks. This is what you will experience in this active city tour privately with your local guide.
Choose between privately-guided and self-guided experience.
