Cycling vacation in Lower Danube and local wines tasting program

Cycling vacation in Eastern Europe uncovering the rich heritage of the cultural crossroad situated between Danube and the Balkan Mountain. Bike routes passing through the wildlife areas of two nature parks, one is the highest plateau of Danubian Plain and the other is the most wonderful canyon in Lower Danube, enter medieval churches, carved on the rocks and richly painted with icons, like those in Ivanovo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, take a glimpse of three unique golden treasures of Bulgaria and find some of the most beautiful mosques and Ottoman architectural remnants in Europe. We cater accommodation close to the nature, especially chosen for its relaxing environment, fresh food and tasty traditional cuisine. The tour’s wine tasting program emphasizes on a wide range of local wines which definitely satisfy our guests’ expectations and feature the sentimental spirit of the journey.
