A BULGARIAN WINE EXPERIENCE TOUR WITH
TINA AND LITS
9th – 13th May 2024
Bulgaria – perhaps not normally our first (second or third!) choice as a wine destination however I have been convinced to give it a go by none less than our own travel leader, Tina. Apparently Bulgarian wines have made great strides forward in recent times…….. let’s go and find out for ourselves.
Bulgaria is one of the biggest wine-exporting countries in the world. Wine production has a long history dating back to Thracian times.
It’s also festival weekend so it’s not just wine, there’s also great food and fun and, for the first time, the two 45Not Grumpy tour leaders will work together to give you the best time ever……..
Based for four nights in the old, picturesque town of Plovdiv, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we will explore this ancient city and the surrounding Thrace Valley (aka ‘The Valley of Wine & Roses’) whilst partaking in whatever merriment we find along our way.
