Veliko Tarnovo is the medieval capital of the mighty Bulgarian Kingdom. Today it has an appearance worthy of a fairytale setting. A fairytale with fortresses, cobbled streets, craftsmen, kings, queens and bloody battles - all best presented by our knowledgeable guides. Join us on a small group tour to one of the most beautiful towns in Northern Bulgaria, which also includes a visit to the romantic Revival-period village of Arbanassi. We promise a comfortable ride on an air-conditioned vehicle with a great story-telling guide to keep you amused throughout the entire trip.
