Rhodopean Explorer
After the Off the beaten track tour, I was hooked. How could I not return to this beautiful country and explore more of it? So I came back for another adventure with Evo Danchev to see more of South Bulgaria. Hidden gems like Thrakian Sanctuaries, sunrises over abandoned mountain-villages are part of this tour. I will tell the stories of this adventure from October 16, 2020, on my blog.
For photos from my previous Bulgaria - Off the beaten track adventure, including the northern parts of Bulgaria, visit the Bulgaria - Off the beaten track gallery.
