Welcome to Awesome Bulgaria

Bulgaria is one of the most amazing and unique countries in Europe, with a wide variety of activities to experience. Its beauty lies in its unspoilt nature with its national parks teaming with flora, fauna and birdlife, and its spectacular mountain ranges (Rila, Pirin, Rodope, and Balkan Mountains). These lend themselves to a range of different all year round explorative outings for the more adventurous or for those just wanting to enjoy the scenery and culture at a slower pace.

Bulgaria has an interesting and long history. For those wanting to delve into its past there are constant reminders in terms of its architecture, archaeological sites, arts and crafts and in particular the history of the Thracians. These have been well preserved to portray a proud nation steeped in fascinating culture.

The Bulgarian people are extremely warm and welcoming and their unhurried way of living has a real calming influence on all who take time to experience their way of life. They take great pride in producing excellent traditional cuisine which, together with some sumptuous local wines, makes for superb dining experiences.

The exchange rate is extremely favourable with Bulgaria hanging on to its own currency. This makes for an excellent value for money experience, no matter what one chooses to experience here: adventure sports, internal travel, eating out, cultural visits, places of interest, or finding tasteful accommodation. Its is all well within any traveller's budget.

Bulgaria listed number 5 in Lonely Planet top ten countries to visit 2011!
"For those who looked, Bulgaria has always had its moments ?in its biggest cities, on its snow-capped peaks and great-value ski fields, on its golden-sand beaches and in ancient Black Sea port towns. Networks of well-maintained hiking trails and horse-riding routes allow the discovery of Bulgaria's lush mountainous and forested landscapes, especially around the Rila and Pirin Mountains, inhabited by bears, lynx, rare birds and other kinds of wildlife now becoming scarce elsewhere in Europe. Its ski slopes are de facto destinations for Europeans looking for cheaper alternatives, empty patches of lovely Black Sea beaches can still be found, and its quietly brilliant wine industry is flourishing."
