Secrets and Splendors of Varna

Discover the city’s fascinating history and main sights on our Secrets and Splendors of Varna private 3-hour private tour.

We’ll walk through Varna’s historic quarter and explore its landmarks – the ancient Roman Thermae and towering over the city center the magnificent Assumption Cathedral. We’ll stroll through Varna’s old town. We’ll soak in the charm of the cobblestone streets and old mansions. A visit to fascinating churches will provide an interesting insight into Bulgarian Orthodoxy. How did Bulgarians manage to preserve their religion under the Ottoman Turks? Why do the Orthodox churches go one floor under the ground?

We’ll go on a treasure hunt in Varna’s Archeological museum. The museum’s highlight is the oldest worked gold found anywhere in the world. On top of that, many more unique artifacts: Roman surgical implements, Hellenistic tombstones and recreated ancient burials found along the Black Sea shoreline.

You may rightfully say that you can see Varna’s sights all by yourself… We’ll dare argue with that. Each sight in Varna, even the most known one, has a little bit of secret history, which we’ll crack during this tour. We’ll share with you exciting stories. And to hear the stories is to experience the city. Join us!

A stop for a quick local snack at an authentic eatery and a glass of Bulgarian wine can be definitely included into the tour.

This Varna private tour is one of our Secrets and Splendors of Main Sights tour series that we run in the Black Sea ports.
