Experience I would do again

Thanks to Methodisty's kindness and availability we had a pleasant excursion. The guide with his calm voice puts you at ease, meticulous in detail and sociable. Excited to have met him! The visit to the monastery lasted a little longer than expected, there was also time for a break or lunch at the restaurant. Arriving in Kotvata for Spa and Pools it was a real time to relax and spend time away from the city. Recommended only if you have the patience to spend some time in the car, the attractions are a few hours away from the center of Sofia.

Excellent experience!

Great experience, the guide picked me up from the hotel then we went to the rila monastery. The guide is a history book in itself... we were able to discuss Bulgaria throughout the journey. He also explained to me many very interesting things in the monastery. Then we hit the road again and the guide dropped me off at Sapareva Banya where I could enjoy the 38 degree swimming pool and the hammam and saunas for at least 2 hours… it was super relaxing! In short, I recommend this excursion! Thanks to the guide :)
