Itinerario
El Monasterio de Rila fue fundado en el siglo X por San Juan de Rila, un ermitaño canonizado por la iglesia ortodoxa. Su vivienda ascética y tumba se convirtieron en un lugar sagrado y fueron transformadas en un complejo monástico que desempeñó un papel importante en la vida espiritual y social de la zona medieval de Bulgaria. Destruida por un incendio a principios del siglo XIX, el complejo fue reconstruido entre 1834 y 1862. Un ejemplo característico del Renacimiento búlgaro (siglos XVIII y XIX), el monumento simboliza la consciencia de una identidad cultural eslava tras siglos de ocupación.
Situada a las afueras de Sofía, la iglesia de Boyana consta de tres edificios. La iglesia oriental fue construida en el siglo X, a continuación, se amplió a principios del siglo XIII por Sebastocrator Kaloyan, quien ordenó construir un segundo edificio de dos plantas erigido junto a él. Los frescos en la segunda iglesia, pintados en 1259, la convierten en una de las más importantes colecciones de pinturas medievales. El grupo se completa con una tercera iglesia, construida a principios del siglo XIX. Este sitio es uno de los más completos y mejor conservados monumentos del arte medieval de la Europa del este.

The two sites: Rila Monastery and Boyana Church, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are definitely worth a visit. They are two architectural masterpieces, steeped in history, spirituality and culture, that fascinated us at first glance. Our guide, Simeon, was professional, knowledgeable and helpful (and speaks excellent Italian!). The bus driver was prudent and reliable.
I had a great time. The tour guide was very kind and helpful. I recommend it 100%. I will definitely book another trip with them next time.
We visited the Rila and Boyana monastery with Simeon. Lovely place and explanations of Simeon or Simon. It is very cultured and has not stopped talking and explaining, plus it has put typical music on the bus.
Rila Monastery is amazing, is a MUST to pay a visit. The tour guide Lubo is a very good tour guide, provided very sufficient historical knowledge and background , and explained the instructions very detailed. Strongly recommend to pay a v8sit there.
Hristo was an amazing guide, so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of the monastery and church. We really enjoyed our trip and would definitely recommend it to everyone. Our only issue was finding the bus to begin with! We were in the right place but originally turned away as the provider was listed on our ticket as "V Travel". We went back and asked them to check for our name on the reservation and it was there but the guide wasn't aware that tickets like ours could be with his company. Very glad we went back to ask or we would have missed this amazing experience!
An unserious tour operator. We booked and paid for a tour to the Rila Monastery with an Italian guide. The night before it was cancelled.
It was raining hard, unfortunately, but we had a great time there. With the help of the explanation of the guide, we understood well the history and how precious the churches are.
Excellent tour Guide was great Small group as opposed to touristing with the masses Very comfortable Delivered on what was advertised and more
The guide Georgi was knowledgable and attentive and the overall experience was good, as the Rila monestary is very special, it's surely worth a visit. Yet the tour was too long - we had too much free time in the monestary and aferwards we stopped in a reataurant for additional hour or so, which extended our tour even more unnecessarily. We could have come back to Sofia two hours earlier.
Dear customer, we thank you very much for the positive and kind feedback. Being a group tour and trying to mainatain a standard high level of service, our tour guide respects the tour timetable very closely in order to satisfy as many customers as possible. Our tour has finished even about 25 minutes earlier and the group was dropped off at the meeting point at 16:35.
Positive experience. Must-see tours if you are in Sofia. Very nice guide, during the trip he also talked about the culture and history of Sofia in general entertaining us along the way. What a good audio guide also in Italian, useful to learn more about the Monastery of Rila
