Portfolio description

We offer you to immerse yourself in the magic of the Eastern Rhodopes.


Price for a guide for a whole day: BGN 100. Price for half a day: BGN 50.


Visit to Historical Museum "Hristo Cholakov" - Borislavtsi village. The museum has one of the richest ethnographic collections for the Eastern Rhodopes. A wonderful lecture, many photos about the history of Madjarovo and a rich mineral collection await you. The museum is private, open year-round, no admission, but any donation is welcome for the maintenance of the collection.


Visit to tahandjinitsa in the village of Borislavtsi. Here we do tahini and honey tasting while listening to the fascinating stories of Bai Hristo and seeing the process of making tahini. The tahanjinica is open all year round, there is no entrance fee, but there is an opportunity to buy real tahini and honey.


Visit to a rare mineral processing workshop. The visit is possible from November to March. In the workshop we will see the whole process of processing rare minerals. There is no entrance, there is a possibility that the rare minerals that we have found in the area can be cut for us for a modest sum. Beautiful worked mineral specimens from the Eastern Rhodope region can be purchased here, as well as beautiful semi-precious stone jewelry produced by the local craftsman.


MAKE YOUR PROGRAM YOURSELF, you can combine the visit to the tahandjinica and the museum in Borislavtsi with all our services.
