The Valley of the Roses and Koprivshtitsa
What your day looks like
It is a little-known fact that over 60% of the world's rose oil is produced in a few Bulgarian small valleys tucked between impressive mountain ranges. This is an exciting full-day trip that will take you to a fairytale scenery of fields of roses, lavender, and sunflowers towered by the rugged peaks of the Balkan Mountain. There your local guide will be revealing the secrets and splendor of the Bulgarian rose oil production at a renowned distillery. Later you will be visiting also visiting the elegant Russian-style church of the Nativity and if time allows to the Shipka peak for great panoramic views. On the way back the ride will be on a different road with completely different views to gaze at. Your English-speaking driver will stop you for a short break in Koprvishtitsa, a small town showcasing in the best way the Bulgarian Renaissance architecture.
