Bulgaria Full Day Tour to Veliko Tirnovo
Departing from Bucharest at 08:00 AM, this full-day tour takes you across the Danube into Bulgaria to discover Veliko Tarnovo, the medieval capital of the Second Bulgarian Empire, and the unique Basarabovo Rock-Hewn Monastery
We leave Bucharest in the morning from our starting point and drive to bulgarian border, Ruse. We’ll cross the Danube River and in approximately 1,5 hours we arrive at Basarbovo Monastery. This is cave monastery, bulgarian-orthodox founded in the Second Bulgarian Empire. Our next stop is at the famous city Veliko Tarnovo, a place with a history more than 5000 years. The focus point of this experience is Tsaravets Palace. This place served as a royal residence for the bulgarian emperors between 1185 and 1393 and was built on the ruins of a byzantine city. After we finish visiting this marvelous place we’ll get lost among the old streets of the city and we’ll have our traditional lunch.
