Off-road safari in Bulgaria’s Balkan Mountains from Sunny Beach

4/5
122 reviews

The real Bulgaria is calling on this exciting day in the countryside. Hop into a comfy 4x4 for a wild ride through the breathtaking Balkan Mountains, where the thrill of crossing the Aheloy River and the beauty of nature come alive. Dimitar, one of our expert local guides, says, "you'll visit Kozichino village, the perfect place to experience the authentic Bulgarian rural way of life. Kozichino is renowned for its efforts to preserve old crafts, customs, and the traditional Bulgarian architecture of the region."

As you rumble through the Bulgarian landscapes, there'll be a few stops. Imagine the excitement as kids turn into treasure hunters in an ancient oak forest, guided by GPS, while adults harness their inner Robin Hood for some archery. The journey takes a scenic turn at 'Tabite,' offering a panoramic view that screams photo op. Come lunchtime, we'll swing by the timeless village of Kozichino for a cultural feast at an ethnographic complex.

Here, in a vibrant courtyard, get a slice of village life, explore a museum packed with local treasures, and snap photos in traditional attire. The owner whips up his signature bio lemonade, served alongside a hearty meal of cabbage salad, grilled kebabchetas, and bread, with a water and lemonade included. But wait, there's more – the 'Safari' orchestra sets the soundtrack to your meal, followed by an off-road adventure to Gyulovtsa, where a rakia tasting awaits.

    I liked being able to stand up in the jeep and look around. I enjoyed the bumpy ride and going over rivers. Had a nice community vibe. Stops were regular and impressive even trying traditional food and drink. Lovely sites!
