Full description
The guide will meet you near the Ivan Vazov National Theatre and accompany you throughout the entire tour. The guide will distribute audio guide devices and headphones to you. You will listen to the tour in your language. You'll move comfortably, enter churches, and take photos, all allowing you to not stand next to the guide but listen to the tour from a distance.
The guide will raise a sign with the number of the object, and you will enter this number on the audio guide. You'll listen to recordings even inside landmarks - within churches and temples.
The tour will conclude near the Presidency, where you can witness the changing of the presidential guard, which takes place every hour.

Мы были на групповой экскурсии с аудиогидом с гидом Ларисой в конце октября 2024 года. Погода была замечательная для осмотра прекрасного города София. Нам очень понравился тип экскурсии, все было слышно и понятно. Достаточно время сделать красивые фото на объектах экскурсии. От Ларисы получили дельные советы ,где вкусно покушать с болгарской кухней и где купить сувениры. По совету Ларисы посетили музей МВД, о чем очень ей благодарны. Спасибо и до следующей встречи

Well organised by friendly guides. Very informative and interesting. The pace was perfect, giving us enough time to explore each stop point.

Mit Audioguide die Stadt Sofia zu erkunden kann ich jeder/jedem nur empfehlen. Mann bekommt, in seiner Sprache alles Wissenswerte über die Stadt und ihre Geschichte, die man sonst nicht erhält. Der Preis von weniger als CHF 10.00 ist für ca. 2,5 Stunden ist in keinem Verhältnis. Bitte gebt den beiden tollen Tourguide ein gutes Trinkgeld.

Considering how affordable the tour was I was very impressed. The guides explained the audio system and ensured everyone was up to speed wherever we were. It was very well organised and I’d highly recommended.
