リラ修道院午前半日ツアー

A wonderful half day trip to the Rila Monastery! The place is really beautiful and Apostolos, our driver and guide, was really cool, knowledgeable, engaging and happy to share the history of this special place.

Very nice experience and our guide Apostolos was amazing

One must visit Rila when in Bulgaria! The tour was well organised with lovely guide and driver who were very informative and friendly. Highly recommended!

Our tour guide, Apostolos, was very knowledgeable about the history and background of the destination.

Very nice way to see the monastery and Slavyan explained everything to us easily to make sure we understood,was an easy and enjoyable way to visit and well worth it

The Rila Monastery was a beautiful visit after a long car ride that our guide, Desi. Truly made enjoyable and fun!!

We had a wonderful day at Rilla Monastery and Seven Lakes! We were positively surprised that the hike was not too difficult. The start was a bit steep but that only lasted for 10-15 minutes! If you book both destinations you will most likely only see three lakes, as you will run out of time. It’s still worth it! We got lucky with the weather! Bring another layer as the way down gets a bit chillier than the way up!

The monastery is beautiful and the setting incredible. You cannot believe the mosaics. The entire sanctuary is covered with beautiful works of art. And amazing gold work. The stairs to the old tower are no joke! Be ready to climb! I was so fortunate to sit in front with Lyubo, who was a font of information about the history of Bulgaria from it's roots. I have never had a tour guide so well read and interested in everything. Thank you!

My guide was distracted by flirting with a 19 year old German girl the whole trip. We received very little information during the ride, and a short tour at the Monastery. He was so distracted that it affected his driving. He was veering back and forth as he scrolled through videos to show her and making conversation with her. Also the whole trip took about 6 hours instead of the advertised 4.5.

Essential to go, it is very nice, it is worth it! Besides our driver was very nice and explained many things about Bulgaria and the monastery.
