Tour: Balkan Village Trek (8 days progressive ride in Teteven Balkan area)
One of the best tours I have been at. Antoni is great, funny, social and telling stories about bulgarian legends and other interesting things about places we have been at. Helpful and friendly.

Tour: Orpheus Trail (8 days progressive ride in Rodopi mountains)
We must say that our guide was just perfect. He was funny and spoke very good english. He was very nice to us and was welcome at all over the places. He was fun to ride with, he gave us race and everytime he asked if we were OK. So Penguin Travel please be good with our guide, because if we are going to Bulgaria again we will have our man again.

Tour: Rila – Pirin Trek Classic (hut-to-hut, guided)
Det var en fantastisk tur. Vi var super tilfreds med vores guide Anna Marie.. Hun var bare sød, hjælpsom og kompetent. Bjergene og området var fantastisk – og det var en lidt hård tur, men det kan vi godt lide….:)

Tour: Rila-Pirin Mountain Trek (Bulgaria)
This year we went for a hiking tour in Rila- and Pirin- mountains. Our tour was perfect not the least because of our guide Anna Maria Markova. The tour full fulfilled our expectations which we had from the programme on the internet. Anna Maria was a perfect guide for us. She was a perfect leader, she was enthusiastic about the mountains, and showed great awareness to her customers and flexibility in the way things were planned due to weather and practical circumstances. She was very well orientated about the mountain history and environment and could tell us a lot about Bulgarian history and culture. We are sure that we will come back to Bulgaria. We will book the tour via Pinguin Travel and we will ask for Anne Maria to be our guide again. So we give our absolute best recommendations to this wonderful guide.
