The ski tracks are only 12 km away! If you are a keen skier, we guarantee you a wonderful experience! If you are not the qualified ski teachers are waiting for you. /see Bansko/

Combine your visit to Bulgaria with the celebration of the New Year in one of the most beautiful and romantic nooks of the Balkan mountain! Following the local custom you will get your wishes for health and luck, and if it works, come back next year!
We offer you to spend New Years Eve in Tryavna.

You can assist at the Holiday of the young red wine. An opportunity to taste the young wine and meet the New Year in a special way!

February 2006 Pruning off the vines… cheers!

Don't' think February is not a time for traveling! The 14 of February in Bulgaria is the Holiday, dedicated to the patron of the wine, Saint Triphone Zarezan. The old custom, music, dances, the carnival holidays will warm the cold winter days. If you insist to celebrate Saint Valentine's day, which is on the same day, let's do it together, both saints we celebrate with good wine!
We have several itineraries for that day, as they are combined with the Chukeri custom: parade of frightful masks, masquerade . This custom is an ancient response of the tradition of chasing away the evil and the evil saints.
Our specific wine tour will take part in this holiday in Eastern Bulgaria. The other itineraries also include visits, where many surprises are waiting for you!
Don't miss to get know this old Bulgarian holiday of Trifon Zarezan - the pruning off the vines, the day of the wine-grower!

March 2006 Marthenitza making

In some regions of Bulgaria the Kukeri holidays continue. Our tour will show you the International festival of the Choukeri and the masquerade games /in the end of Februaray and the beginning of March/ and the Chukeri's convocation. We combine this tour with the old custom of making of martenitza: an amulet for heath, which we present as a gift on the 1st of March to our friends and the people we love. We carry this amulet until seeing the first stork, and then we put it under a stone or hang it on a special tree. So together with us you will make your first martenitza combining the red and white threads... If you have time stay with us and wait for the first storks!
