I really enjoyed this trip one on one - my guide was very knowledgable and took the time to explain everything to me. Excellent guide - excellent tour highly recommend it.
Thank you so much for your kind words and positive review. We are happy to read you had a great time! We hope that in the future you can discover another city with LocalBini as your travel partner!
One hour tour which was 30 minutes not the stated one hour. Can be done by yourself given the information available to read. Very expensive for 30 minutes and the guide was late.
We're sorry to hear your experience in Sofia did not meet your expectations. After reviewing the situation, we discovered the tour was indeed cut short contrary to what was booked, and immediately proceeded to refund you the corresponding percentage of the price. Your feedback will be taken into consideration in our continuous efforts to provide travellers like you with an amazing experience in Sofia. We hope you still managed to enjoy some of the highlights of Sofia and hope to welcome you soon again on another LocalBini Experience.
The guide was nice and tried to explain but the tour it self was quiet expensive for sth that more than 75% was in public areas and free to be visited. The archeological site didn't have almost any information on it. Not the best experience

Very informative on the history of the catacombs and city of Sofia in the past. Our guide, Nayden has a vast knowledge and explained very well in English.

Nayden, our guide is knowledgeable and making the tour quite fun eventhough we visited the catacombs. We finished the tour by understanding more about the ancient and modern history of Sofia and Bulgaria.
