Tours of the City
Walking Tours
Many private travel agencies organise walking tours with English-speaking guides, as well as excursions out of town, including Balkantourist, 1 Vitosha Boulevard (tel: (02) 875 192; website: www.balkantourist.com), Balkantour Ltd, 27 Stambolijski Boulevard (tel: (02) 988 5543; e-mail: balkantour@hotmail.com), Tourist Service, 127 Rakovski Ulica (tel (02) 988 8108, e-mail: tourist-service@ind-bg.bg), and LYUB Travel, 11 M Kamak Ulica (tel: (02) 963 4427), which specialises in weekend getaways for ex-pats. An organised walking tour of the city centre, however, is largely unneccessary, as the historic sights are all concerntated aroune Ploshtad Sveta Nedelya and are well marked, making a self-guided tour the easiest and cheapest option.
