We had a wonderful half-day tour to the Rila monastery with our guide Slavyan. He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole tour really interesting. He shared lots of interesting facts about the history and culture and was happy to answer all of our questions. Everything was well organized. We really enjoyed the tour and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Sofia. Thank you, Slavyan, for a great experience!

Guide Slavyan contacted me politely from the initial meeting email, so I felt at ease joining the tour! It's a very satisfying tour, with delicious donuts and yogurt too! I recommend it 😊
Alex picked us up on an SUV. There were only 5 attendees that joined the tour so it was spacious. The drive was very pleasant. Alex was a good driver. And he was even a better tour guide when we got to the Monastery. He started us with a delicious Bulgarian donut for breakfast. And then head on around the Monastery and inside the church. Honestly, I would do this tour again next time I come back and bring a water container because the water from the pipes around the Monastery was the freshest and tastiest drink I ever had! Thanks for a wonderful morning, Alex!
We had a great tour to Rila Monastary with Slayan, the tour was interesting, included a delicious snack and everything was explained really well and easy to understand.
The guide is great, passionate, and cheerful! Thanks to him for this excursion, the explanations throughout the trip and on-site, as well as for the fritters and the Bulgarian yogurt! I would also specify an excursion that is either for the full day or from 12:00 PM to 6:30 PM rather than 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM because it is too short with the travel time :)
I really wanted to see Rila Monastery but didn’t have a car. The tour guide drove us is a mini-van and took us to the Monastery. When we got there he gave us a short history lesson and took us to the restaurant to try some local cuisine. Then you have about 45 minutes to take photos. It would have been nice to have more time to take photos as the drive is about 2 hours. However it is a half day.
I would like to thank a great guide with whom I was on three tours in Sofia: A trip to the Rila monastery outside Sofia, a tour to know Sofia, its main sites and its historical story and a tour of the Jewish story that was really exciting. The Slavyan guide is knowledgeable, full of humor and courtesy and we and all the tour participants have had a lot of fun with him. He's a Bulgarian patriot and loves people, easy to fall in love with, as much as the Minister of Culture and Foreign Affairs of Sofia and Bulgaria. We highly recommend joining his and his company’s free tours and getting his excellent guidance. We’ll be back...Thank you very much Response from Israel.
A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon visiting the Monastery. After navigating our way to a somewhat odd pick-up point, we were promptly met by our guide Slavyan and -following a brief introduction-embarked on our 1½ hour journey by people carrier through the scenic Rila mountains. Our English- speaking guide was very personable and knowledgeable about the background to the monastery, but also the context and history of Bulgaria in general. He welcomed questions and was very thorough and well- informed. The monastery itself was breathtaking; a place of beauty and tranquility, which provided an opportunity to pause, reflect and be inspired. We had about 90 mins to explore and take photos and whilst it was busy, it felt unrushed. Despite some problems encountered, such as others in our party who bought tickets to look around the monastery kitchen museum which they then couldn't access; and also a rather speedy, hair- raising drive back to Sofia, I would certainly recommend this tour.
The trip was incredibile: amazing panorama from the mountains , stunning magical monastery and a beautiful torrent nearby. Our guide Slavyan was super prepared and willing to tell us everything about the site and Bulgaria in general. I super recommend this tour: you cannot miss Rila monastery!
Rila Monastery is truly amazing. Slavyan our guide was very knowledgable and brought his own personal experiences to the tour. A great afternoon but wish we could have had a little longer at Rila.
