Guided Walking Tour Old Town of Plovdiv & Rakia Tasting

About this activity

Discover Plovdiv - one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Europe, with more than 6,000 years of history. We will show you over 20 landmarks and cultural monuments in Plovdiv.

You will see beautifully preserved mosaics, traditional Bulgarian architecture, atmospheric cobblestone streets, and experience the magic of Plovdiv's Old Town.

Our guided walking tour includes audio guide devices through which you listen to the history of the landmarks in your own language.

This will allow you the freedom to move comfortably, enter churches, take photos, and not having to stand next to the guide all the time to hear the stories. Instead you can listen to the tour from a distance.

During the approximately 2.5-hour walking tour, you will explore the main highlights of ancient Plovdiv and the Old Town, discover lesser-known archaeological sites, understand the local culture, and feel the unique atmosphere of the city.

At the end, you can taste the traditional Bulgarian Rakia.
