    Our first stop is unique – the Holy Trinity Cathedral Church in the heart of the “little Vienna” - Ruse.

    Veliko Tarnovo, the crown jewel of Bulgaria's past. Ascend the mighty Tsarevets Fortress, once a royal palace, and marvel at the breathtaking views that unfold before you. Explore the city's charming streets and lose yourself in its impressive architecture.

    After a delicious lunch, we'll venture to Arbanasi Village, a hidden gem nestled amidst rolling hills. Admire the village's centuries-old architecture and capture stunning panoramas of the surrounding mountains.
