This excursion reveals the very best of the Black Sea Riviera by taking you to two of its most famous resorts – Balchik and Golden Sands. Your first stop is Varna, where you explore the Archaeological Museum on a guided tour. See the richest collection in all of Bulgaria, including treasures from the Hellenistic and Roman eras.

Your tour then continues along the picturesque Black Sea coast to Balchik, where you disembark for a guided walking tour of the beautiful 85-acre Botanical Gardens with its rich collection of cacti and 3,000 rare and exotic plants.

You also enjoy a brief visit to Balchik Palace, the former summer residence of Queen Marie of Romania, built when this region of Bulgaria was annexed to Romania. Afterwards another scenic drive through the countryside takes you to Golden Sands, one of the pearls of the Bulgarian coast.

Nestled amongst the trees of the Golden Sands Nature Park, as the name suggests the resort is famed for its beautiful silky sand that stretches for two miles.

As well as taking a tour of this chic resort with some free time to explore, enjoy a Bulgarian-style lunch featuring local specialities, and watch a colourful folk performance.
