DURATION AND ITINERARY
Day 1
Arrival at Sofia Airport and transfer to a hotel in the mountains. Free time and relaxation followed by a lavish dinner.
Day 2
A strong breakfast to get you started, followed by a short instruction session by our team leader. Then you jump on the bikes and head to the hills. Next, around 13:00 it’s time for lunch and a short break. After – more hills and beautiful views. Finally you will reach either a hotel or a traditional Bulgarian mountain hut where you will experience more of the famous Bulgarian hospitality, have dinner and relax.
Day 3
After breakfast you will get on your bikes and head up the mountain for one more day full of cool paths, more adventurous challenges (depending on level and experience), nice lunch and stunning views. In the end a new hotel or a mountain hut will be waiting for you with treats and dinner.
Day 4
Day 5
Can you smell it already? Maybe you can feel a slight change from the fresh pine scented air of the mountain to a more light, salty and exciting smell? You are now getting closer to the Black sea! After yet another day of exciting trails, paths, invigorating tastes (maybe some wild fruits?) you will arrive at the seaside. Golden beaches, wavy seashore, deep blue sea. Relax, enjoy a tasty dinner and it’s time to relax and celebrate your achievement of crossing the biggest mountain range in Bulgaria in order to reach the sandy beaches. And oh well, a little party never killed nobody 😉 Enjoy the moment without any worries. The next day is…well, special.
Day 6
We love the mountains but we also love the sea. That’s why we have planned something special for you. A whole day spent by the seaside including exploring cultural sites, swimming, chilling on the beach. For those who need even more adventure and adrenaline – jetski, water ski, wakeboarding, inflatable attractions, boat trips and much more!
Day 7
Transfer to Burgas airport (short trip) and time to say goodbye.
But here in Bulgaria we don’t say ‘goodbye’ we say ‘Do-vij-da-ne’, meaning until we meet again.
And that’s what you will hear from us because we believe that our trips create not only great memories but also lasting friendships.
