Archeology

We believe that archaeology is not about ruins and stones, but about the story of the people who created them. It is the story of human life throughout the ages that brings the ancient world back to life, telling us how people lived, what they believed in, what they ate, what their homes looked like.

There are many reasons to travel in Bulgaria. At first glance Bulgaria may look small, but it is the third richest country in Europe in terms of archaeological finds. Travelling in Bulgaria means discovering a long and fascinating history. Some Bulgarian cities are built on Neolithic archaeological sites, which makes them among the oldest in Europe. Our trips offer the chance to admire artifacts left by the first agricultural societies in Europe, learn about the Copper-Age people who made the first gold objects in the world, visit impressive ancient sites built by Thracians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Bulgarians, and Ottomans. Our routes run through historic towns, museums with stunning collections of gold and silver treasures, richly painted medieval churches and monasteries, and unspoiled landscapes. All of this is waiting to be discovered and explored.

Our tours are suitable both for archaeologists and guests passionate about archaeology. They are escorted by hand-picked professionals – archaeologists, historians, or expert local guides.

We can also arrange participation in ongoing excavations and meetings with renowned Bulgarian archaeologists.

All tours can be combined with other activities.
