Embark on an unforgettable journey designed for 2 adults, exploring the heart of Eastern Europe. This adventure-packed tour takes you from the vibrant city of Budapest to the historic streets of Sofia, blending cultural highlights with exciting activities. With a focus on Activities and Active Holidays, this trip promises unique experiences, from city walks and culinary discoveries to scenic hikes and local encounters.
To make the most of your trip, I highly recommend reading "Lonely Planet Eastern Europe" for comprehensive insights and practical tips. For a deeper dive into the region's history and culture, "The Balkans: Nationalism, War, and the Great Powers, 1804-2012" by Misha Glenny offers an engaging perspective. If you enjoy travel narratives, "The Bridge on the Drina" by Ivo Andrić is a literary classic that brings the region's past to life. Additionally, consider downloading the "Rick Steves Audio Europe" app, which provides free walking tours and guides for many European cities, including Budapest and Sofia.
This 10-day tour will leave you wondering why you waited to explore Europe's roads less travelled. Travel from Budapest to Sofia and experience Eastern Europe’s charm firsthand. Head out on an orientation walk of Budapest. Discover Romania’s countryside while visiting Sighișoara or marvel at the baroque architecture of Brasov. (Better yet, enjoy the contrast by seeing them both.) You'll also have time to sample Bulgarian cuisine that'll give you the energy you need to cycle your way through Veliko Tarnovo, one of the oldest cities in the world.
