Retro Communist-Era Tour: Fun, Enlightening, Adventuresome!

Nvision Travel’s Communism Tours in Bulgaria offer an outstanding opportunity for retro Soviet-era exploration [recalling that Bulgaria was part of the Eastern bloc, not the USSR]. I joined one other traveler and two delightful guides, Beni & Betty (Nvision’s owner-operators) for an adventuresome road trip....More

I visited Buzludzha during a rather harsh time of the year. It was snowing and we had snowstorms during the way. Beni and Betty were excellent as our guides during the trip, helping us during this bad weather, giving us a peak into the communist...More

The guides were excellent and fun!

In 2016, I went to Bulgaria to learn about communist history -- and I used Nvision Communism Tours. With Tsveti, I got to see much more than I expected related to the communist past. So I came back to Bulgaria for another vacation in 2017...More

A great tour with amazing guides

The Buzludzha tour was amazing. Benny and Beti were both fluent in English, and very knowledgeable about Bulgaria and Buzludzha's history. They shared some great newspaper clippings and other documents/publications from the Communist era, and took us to an authentic Bulgarian lunch and breakfast. I...More
