Reviews for Rodopi Mountains walking holiday in Bulgaria
Seyhan Turan review 15 Jun 2025
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Too many to choose from. The scenery in general, it is so unspoilt with native plants, meadows and wildlife in general. It was a special place to visit. We had the mountains to ourselves, it was nice not to rush, although we did decent walks, to stop and observe.. and our guide Julian was incredibly knowledgeable. He seems so committed to the area and so passionate so it felt like a privilege to be on this trip with him.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Dont forget your camera as there is so much flora & fauna, don't forget to ask questions as the guide has incredible knowledge. Hotel is comfortable and local food was really good so just bring yourself and the suncream.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
We stayed at a local hotel which employed local people. Since our guide works in conservation, supporting him and increasing our awareness also helps in some ways.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
This was a truly special holiday in my opinion.. I am so glad I picked this holiday.Caroyl Mead review 29 Aug 2018
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
I enjoyed the whole holiday, we were particularly lucky with the weather and although August is getting a little late there were still some flowers to see. The caves were particularly interesting. Still quite a few flowers to see2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Possibly to take a travel plug for the wash basin.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Presumably as we stayed in a family run hotel which employed local people then it did benefit the local people.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
I thoroughly enjoyed the holiday and our group leader Nelly Radkova was excellent.Holiday Reviews
You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
