Good History and Background
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I very much liked this guide. It was excellent for history and background as well as how to shop. The ONLY thing that I can really fault this guide for is that all names are in English. If the place names were in Cyrillic as well, it would be helpful in recognizing locations!
By far the best guide on Bulgaria
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is a great guide covering everything from the best places to eat and the best hostels to stay for cheap backpackers to cultural history. Everything is arranged in easy to find geographic regions. Especially enjoyable is the small sections scattered thoughout on major historical figures. The glossary of Bulgarian terms is a little short but who would really understand you with your thick accent anyway The guide is good but don't expect everything to be exactly as it is in the guide. Bulgaria is a place of rapid change and many places close and open rapidly. Travelers beware many palces outside of Sofia close between 2 and 4.
informative and intersesting
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I visited Bulgaria in 7/99 and travelled around for almost 3 weaks with a rented car. Before going there i have read everything I could find (books and internet) - this was the only book that gave good information, intersting details, and enlightments about Bulgaria. One must remember that a developing country such as Bulgaria rates change, places are being closed' and new open every days. However as for the hotels and restorants most of the details were pretty acurate as for the 'what to see' i have never met a better guide. I do recommand this guide to anyone who travels to Bulgaria, if he wants to know what to do there and to understand the country
Excellent work

Wide coverage; history, transportation, culture, food, language(s), attractions. Covers a lot of the country and many towns and villages in each region. This is one of the most interesting and useful travel books I have encountered.

The best book i've found on visiting Bulgaria. I visited Bulgaria in Sept 96 and the book is incredibly thorough on all the small towns of Bulgaria. I'm going back,and this book will be in my backpack!
