Good wine tasting and tour around Plovdiv
Lovely tour around d Plovdiv. Demetri is very knowledgeable about the history and the area. What was supposed to be a group tour turned out to be a private tour so the timing was a lot more flexible. We didn’t see the red church as we preferred spending more time at Plovdiv which is a lot more scenic that Sofia - rich history and culture. As a wine enthusiast, Villa Yustina was a good visit. We requested to top up so we can taste more wines and it was the best decision. Would have loved to visit more wineries if possible!

One awesome day!
We had one amazing time visiting Plovdiv, wine tasting @ Villa Yustina and seeing the Red Church at sunset. Our guide Filip and our driver Peter did an excellent job making us feel welcomed and safe. Filip is very knowledgeable and engaging. Highly recommended this tour!
Response from the operator: Thank you for reviewing our tour. We will be happy to see you again in our country.

Nice guide!
I had a wonderful time with her(,nice guide). While traveling by car, I heard about Bulgaria's geography and history. It was interesting. I took a walk while receiving a polite explanation of the city of Plovdiv. In wine tasting, I was able to enjoy it slowly. On the way back I stopped at Red Church and I felt like I had a time slip. It was very fun! 私は素敵なガイドさんのおかげでとても有意義な時間をすごすことができました。 車での移動中は、ブルガリアの地理や歴史のお話を聞くことが出来ました。プロブディフの街では、丁寧な説明を受けながら散策しました。 ワインテイスティングでは、ゆっくりと自分のペースで楽しむことができました。 帰り道に立ち寄ったレッドチャーチでは、タイムスリップしたような気分になりました。 とても有意義な1日でした。

Plovdiv and Perushtitsa Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Sofia: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sofia.
How much does Plovdiv and Perushtitsa Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Sofia cost?
+
Prices start at $166 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sofia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Plovdiv and Perushtitsa Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Sofia take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sofia is not rushed.
Is Plovdiv and Perushtitsa Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Sofia worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sofia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Plovdiv and Perushtitsa Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Sofia?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Plovdiv and Perushtitsa Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Sofia suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Plovdiv and Perushtitsa Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Sofia?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sofia can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sofia and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Plovdiv and Perushtitsa Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Sofia start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sofia within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sofia?
+
On Outty we rank every Sofia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sofia Highlights 2 Hour Sightseeing Walking Tour, Communist Walking Tour of Sofia, Museum of illusions Sofia Official Entry ticket. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sofia?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sofia?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
