We treat every trip like we’re planning it for our closest friends. The best way to experience Bulgaria isn't from a crowded bus, but …

Explore the Rila Monastery at your own pace. Take a short walk to the Cave of St. John of Rila, and soak in the epic mountain views at the beautiful Kirilova Polyana meadow.

  • Enjoy a refreshing walk in nature
  • Customize the tour fully to suit your needs
Say goodbye to rigid schedules, meeting points, and crowded buses. Be the boss of your itinerary with a small group! Your local guide will pick you up from your accommodation. After a two-hour transfer, you can explore Bulgaria’s most iconic UNESCO site at your own pace with a guided tour and plenty of free time. Next, we’ll take a refreshing 15-minute walk to the Cave of St. John of Rila. We follow the footsteps of St. Ivan Rilski into an ancient beech forest, where the hermit spent his last years. Test your luck and squeeze through the legendary rock tunnel—it's a classic local adventure that’s said to cleanse your soul and bring you good vibes. Our last stop is Kirilova Polyana! This beautiful, tucked-away meadow is the perfect spot to take in the most dramatic, high-alpine scenery in the Rila Mountains. Surrounded by massive, jagged cliffs that stand tall like giants, the views here are absolutely massive and feel truly epic.
