Rejseplan
Den bemærkelsesværdige Asens fæstning fra det 13. århundrede ligger på en panoramahøjde i Rhodope-bjergene 30 minutter syd for Plovdiv. Der finder du også meget velbevaret kristen-ortodokse kirke fra det 13. århundrede malet med nogle autentiske stykker ikonografi. Øverst på fæstningen kan du nyde et fantastisk 360 graders panorama over hele Rhodope-bjergene, Asenovgrad-byen, Den thrakiske dal og det imponerende Balkan-område med dets højeste Botev-bjergtop i det fjerne.
Grundlagt i 1083 Bachkovo Kloster er det næststørste i Bulgarien. Inde i klosteret besøger du Jomfru Marias hovedkirke, der blev bygget i 1604, hvor et værdifuldt mirakelarbejdende ikon af Saint Mary fra det 11.-12. Århundrede e.Kr. holdes sammen med nogle meget velbevarede originale fresker. Klostrets refektorium er en anden juvel i komplekset, som har bevaret farverige vægmalerier fra 1643. Refektoryens besøg er valgfrit mod et ekstra gebyr mod et mindre entrégebyr. Inde sammen med dommedagsfresken vil du være vidne til billederne af mange profeter, helgenmunke, gamle filosoffer og forfattere som Socrates, Aristoteles, Platon osv. I det andet klostergård besøger du endelig kirken Saint Nikola bygget mellem 1834 og 1837. Valgfrit for naturentusiaster kan du fortsætte turen med en kort og let gåtur i naturreservatet Røde mur i nærheden af Bachkovo-klosteret, hvor du opdager et smukt vandfald, grønne enge og frodige skove.
De vidunderlige broer ligger i 1450 m. en. s. l. i hjertet af de dejlige Rhodope-bjerge. Dette unikke naturfænomen består af to klippebroer (højde 45 m) over en lille flod. Marmorbroerne blev dannet af et jordskælv og den erosive aktivitet af den engang høje vandflod og vinde. Sammen med Bachkovo-klosteret og Assens fæstning er disse fremragende naturbroer også på listen over de 100 nationale turiststeder i Bulgarien. Om sommeren i weekenden er den længste zipline på Balkanhalvøen (240 m), der strækker sig mellem de 2 broer, tilgængelig for de mere eventyrlystne rejsende. Zip line-turen finder sted omkring 50 m over floden, der strømmer gennem de 2 stenede broer.

This was a great tour. We got picked up right outside our apartment, and it ended up being a private tour. Our guide Ekran was very knowledgeable about both the the sites that we saw as well as general history about Bulgaria, so the tour was very informative. He was very flexible in the itinerary and made sure that we spent as much or as little time at the sites as we wanted to. I highly recommend this tour, and if you can get Ekran as your guide, bonus points!
Excellent tour, smoothly adapted to my interests (more time at the bridges). Sites were gorgeous. Lunch stop was great.
Thanks!
Amazing day trip and only booked the day before! Thank you Arkans (sorry if I spelt wrong) for being an amazing guide and very knowledgeable with history. We were also given a choice in what order we wanted to see things (in case the rain started) for the day so we ended up seeing the fortress ( 4 euro entry), then the wonderful bridges before eating lunch at a local traditional Bulgarian restaurant and lastly the monastery. Very happy to experience the mountain air outside Plovdiv and would recommend to anyone :)
Thanks!
We had a very competent guide, the nature is fantastic, and the monastery was very impressive.
The tour was chosen for convenience as navigating via public transport was not the best idea. I corresponded with Kamen via email and was given very detailed explanation of the tour. The confusion at one point was also professionally handled. On tour day, Kamen himself made sure we had the most wonderful time. There were 3 people in the group. He was punctual, drove safely and ensured we were comfortable throughout. We learnt interesting facts about the sights which enabled us to appreciate Bulgaria's historical & natural treasures even more. Timing was good at all sights and we had a quick lunch at the Wonderful Bridges before heading back to Plovdiv. We had a great daytrip, thanks to a great tour guide. We highly recommend this tour operator to others.
Thanks a lot!
This was a fabulous tour that cannot be missed, but it needs good weather which we were lucky to have. The Asen fortress has magnificent views of the surrounding forest. The Marvelous Bridges are breathtaking. Bachkovo Monastery is beautiful. Our knowledgeable guide collected us on time from our hotel and gave us useful historical information about each place we visited. The trip lasted from 9:15 a.m. to 6 p.m. There is a lot of driving and some of the roads are very bumpy. In late April, when we went, the weather is cool, the spring flowers are in bloom and there are not too many tourists.
Thanks for the good feedback! This tour normally lasts for about 7-7,5 hours so I guess you were given some extra experience.
A wonderful day trip combining amazing views and very interesting historical/religious places. Nice short walks, that are niether too hard, nor too easy. Great communication with Kamen, who was very knowledgeable and friendly. The hot chips at the restaurant is not to be missed. Highly recommend the trip!
Thanks for the wonderful review!
Absolutely amazing! Our guide was so kind, educated, and informative. He gave us a really good overview of Bulgarian history, the area and the religious icons. This particular was the perfect combination of nature and culture. Thank you.
Thanks Celia!
Great tour, made exceptional by our guide Christian. Christian was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the tour content, he answered hundreds of questions thrown at him on the day, and he was friendly and a joy to be around. The tour itself is also worth it and I’d recommend to anyone, being able to see all three points of interest in one day as well as having someone to explain everything was great. I’d recommend to anyone and also use this company again.
Thanks!
We did the tour with Kamel, on the tour we were a small group of 8 people, . Kamel told us everything about what we saw, and answered all our questions. We had enough time for everything, Excellent tour with Kamel, recommended, would do it again
