Our Escorted Tours in Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria and Romania

Between the Balkans and the Black Sea, Bulgaria, happily untouched by the political troubles that have afflicted other Balkan countries in the past, is a peaceful and reassuring destination, yet with a touch of mystery and of the East, and still miraculously off the beaten tourist track, which is exactly what sparks the interest of our travellers. Sofia, one of the oldest cities in the world, offers a judicious blend of cultural influences, such as the Boyana Church, rich in medieval frescoes and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site; the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral; Plovdiv, with its Roman Theatre built by Marcus Aurelius.

Romania, the perfect mix of sightseeing and fun in this romantic land of princes and princesses, but also of mysterious castles that are home to terrifying vampires. In Transylvania, a region at the foot of the Carpathians, we find captivating natural scenery and a wealth of medieval fortresses.

Sea and mountains surround Albania like a crown of treasures. It is a small nation, but one rich in history and nature, far beyond any stereotype or cliché. Tirana, Durrës and Vlorë are just some of its best-known places, and they deserve an attentive and engaged visit.

In Macedonia you really can do it all, from cultural visits to pleasant excursions into nature. A stroll around Ohrid, the most beautiful city in the country and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is enough to give you a sense of the nation’s history. The picture becomes complete with the discovery of Skopje, the capital of Macedonia and a perfect marriage of tradition and a longing for modernity
