When the exhausting heat of the day subsides, and refreshing evening falls upon the city, we will go to explore its beautiful streets, squares and corners. We are going to see all of the iconic locations of Varna, as well as less visited places, and several impressive abandoned buildings. Evening is the best time to experience Varna, as there are fewer cars and people on the streets, the shadows are long, and the last rays of sun add special charm to the city. We will stop on the beautiful Independence Square, where I will tell you the story of all the great buildings around, as well as the story of Varna's most noble architect, who created over 350 buildings, but ended up in prison. At the local market, we are going to taste famous Bulgarian tomatoes, which can weigh as much as 1,3kg! We are also going to try local street food and drink from the oldest bakery in Varna.

In the end, everyone is going to receive a small souvenir to remind you of beautiful Varna and our lovely walk!

My favourite part of the day is the time when the sun begins to set and the locals start gathering in lively groups to enjoy the evening. The city lights turn on one by one, shedding light on Sofia's main landmarks. There is almost no traffic - the perfect moment to explore the city on electric scooters! I can't wait to share this moment with you! We will tour most of the sites in the centre and ride through Borisova garden (The local Central Park), which walking tours skip. We will pass by the Soviet Army Monument, the romantic Lilies Pond, and the small Astronomic Observatory of Sofia University. Then we will ride back to the centre. It will already be dark and I will show you some nice places where you can enjoy the rest of the evening like a local or have a late dinner. The itinerary is about 9 km (5.5 mi) long. It doesn't include any direct riding with heavy traffic. We will be going mostly through bike lanes and areas where cars are not allowed. The e-scooters' top speed is 25 km/h (15 mph). Max load is 100 kg (220 lbs). Min. age is 16. Helmets will be provided for everyone and we will start with brief but precise instructions on how to use the scooters. Safety 1st! Note that insurance is not included. Group tours are in English, privates can be in Bulgarian, Russian or French. IMPORTANT: if you can't ride a bike, you can't ride an e-scooter - they are quite similar!

I will take you on a culinary adventure of the national Bulgarian cuisine. We will prepare seasonal meals and use fresh and locally grown products from the small local grocery stores. Together we will cook a hands-on four-course, traditional Bulgarian meal, including banitsa, a main dish, a salad or a soup, and a light dessert. We will start with the preparation of the classic pastry for banitsa from scratch while talking about mystical Bulgarian food and culture habits stories. Our soup will be traditional Bulgarian cold soup - Tarator (we will cook it only when cucumbers are tasty and in season - spring, summer or early autumn time, for the wintertime we will prepare a winter salad) followed by the main course, which will be based on your food preferences (vegetarian or classic meat dish) and finishing with delicious Bulgarian yogurt dessert with homegrown/made ingredients. You will have the chance to learn classic recipes and secret tips for mastering Bulgarian cuisine. I will be happy to share with you products grown in my family's back yard with a lot of love and care, like homemade alcoholic drinks and classic Bulgarian preserves.

Lakatnik is a small village, built on the gorge of the longest river in Bulgaria-Iskar. Only 52km from the capital Sofia. From the train station in Lakatnik we are going to hike up on the hills until we reached the top of the rocks where has been built a monumen. On our way we will have few stops to make panoramic photos. Also we will see the gate of the cave Temnata Dupka - The Dark Hole.
