Under $1000 Destinations in Bulgaria

Wondering where under $1000 tours visit in Bulgaria? With a variety of stops and destinations along the way, there's something for everyone.

A few of the most popular places visited by tours in Bulgaria include Sofia, Rila, Bansko, Veliko Tarnovo, and Plovdiv.


Which is cheaper?

Can you save money by traveling independently instead of joining guided tours under $1000? It's not a simple yes or no. Tours usually include key expenses such as lodging, transportation, meals, entry fees, guides, and activities, which you'd need to manage and pay for individually on your own trip. To figure out the difference, compare the total tour price with the cost of making your own arrangements. Depending on your choices—like opting for budget hotels or premium dining—the cost of a tour might be higher or lower. Be sure to examine the tour inclusions carefully when comparing.

Also, before booking a tour, make sure you know exactly what is included as tour companies sometimes change their itineraries or included amenities to keep them updated with seasonal changes and customer interests.
