The frescoes at the main church are fascinating masterpiece of the best Bulgarian painters from 19-th century. After lunch we will start with the wine tasting at Medi Valley.

After a morning walk in the old Part of Plovdiv we will head to Starosel winery, where we will have lunch and wine tasting. For a great finish of the tour we will visit Koprivshtitsa.
Posted on Tripadvisor Dean Lin A lucky trip to Plovdiv The tour guide has a very detailed introduction of the various attractions, so that we can fully understand the history and culture of the various attractions, time control is also great, can be discussed with the tour guide at any time to adjust the itinerary, the gentle family on the way is also very well cared for, so we both leave good memories.Posted on Tripadvisor Ross D Great Tour guide was excellent and very knowledgeable.
