If it’s your first time in Sofia, the walk will begin with a taste of the city’s popular breakfast pastries — Banitza or Tikvenik — paired with a cup of Airian. This gives you a small, authentic local flavour before you set off on foot.
Choose this walk if you want more focus on history and archaeology, or if you’re curious about local bars, restaurants, spa options and city markets. As you move through Sofia, your passionate local guide, who grew up in the city, will point out attractions and offer practical insight into what you can do in your free time. Along the way you’ll hear about where locals like to go and the social and night-life highlights, and your guide may point out interesting spots often tucked away in small streets, galleries, bars and events. The emphasis and route will reflect your interests, whether that’s archaeological sites and historic context or the city’s contemporary food, drink and market scene.
