This was a holiday: good food, good weather, relaxing hotel, nice hosts , great group, well organised. An exploration, fabulous unhurried but exhilarating walks, wonderful scenery and an education. Our guide Julian seemed to know and love all the wildlife, the butterflies and birds, the geology, geography, mythology and the current social and political status of Bulgaria. An interesting , informative and stimulating trip for mind and body.
Rodopi Mountains
Rodopi Trips
Exodus adventures to Bulgaria include tours to the Rodopi Mountains, the most extensive range in the country. A hauntingly beautiful and mysterious region and the legendary home of Orpheus, the area has changed very little over the past few hundred years.
The local economy is dependent on small-scale traditional agriculture, with farmers often working the land by hand or horse power. And a significant benefit of this basic way of life is the diverse range of flora and fauna that’s still found here, all of which you’ll seek out on Rodophi tours. The landscape changes dramatically throughout the region, from dense coniferous forest through to rugged limestone gorges, and it’s well known for its brown bears, wolves and wild cats, too.

David V Lomas Bulgaria: Rodopi MountainsThis was an excellent walking tour with, as described, moderate walking but with time to stop and enjoy the wildlife and great views. It was very well organised and the village hotel was a good choice for walkers with good rooms, excellent home made food and attentive staff.
