Truly authentic, local and bespoke. The activity happens in the Rose Valley and it's spectacular, totally worth experiencing it!
In this tour, you can not only personally get to know the flower of the gods - the oil-bearing Kazanlak Rose, which is grown only in these latitudes, but also take part in the ancient ritual on picking roses with the local rose-pickers dressed in folk traditional costumes during the rose picking season, with the tasting rose sweet, gulovitsa and rose liqueur. And then you will visit an old house where you will learn to brew the rose oil and extract the rose water. You will see local mode of life and centuries-old Bulgarian customs and traditions, which local residents will share with you. A visit to the Bulgarian Rose factory will take you to a demonstration of rose soap making. The operator reserves the right to make amendments in the programme/itinerary because of the different time of rose maturing in the region.
