BULGARIA
Bulgaria's best days out.
The 5 best tickets tours in Bulgaria. What each one involves, who runs it, and what you will pay.
A 400 m² hands-on Museum of Illusions in Sofia with photo moments, helpful staff, and about 1–2 hours of eye-bending fun.
“Il prezzo è un pò alto visto che si tratta di un solo livello di illusioni ma alla fine è stato divertente e molto simpatico.”
Action Aqua Park in Sunny Beach with shuttle and entry for $25.79, from family splash zones to extreme slides, half or full day.
“Fun on the slides for all ages. Very very Clean. Only disappointed because there was one restaurant offering food. No other options.”
A 1-hour, English-friendly Museum of Illusions ticket in Veliko Tarnovo with hands-on light, shadow, and photo moments.
“A surprising and unexpectedly beautiful experience! The staff members presenting the experiments and helping with the photos were so kind—they took some amazing, album-worthy pictures for us ❤️. You absolutely cannot miss this museum; it is incredibly interesting! ❤️”
Self-guided Varna Archaeological Museum ticket with pre-booked entry and English materials, covering Hellenistic, Roman and medieval finds.
“I never received my ticket to enter the museum. . . Even though we paid in full on Viator. Must be a scam. . .”
Guided Seven Rila Lakes hike from Sofia with chairlift, hotel pickup, and a 5-hour route through seven lakes, led by a professional guide.
“The hike was enjoyable, and the view was great. time management was good, we were back in Sofia earlier than expected.”
