Bulgaria
Private chauffeur in Sofia
Set against Mount Vitosha, Sofia layers three thousand years of history: remains of Roman Serdica beneath the city-centre streets, the fourth-century St George Rotunda, the golden domes of the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the Ivan Vazov National Theatre. Your private chauffeur in Sofia links the airport to the centre in some twenty minutes and serves the Vitosha Boulevard hotels and the business districts, in a premium sedan or van at a fixed price.
Two excursions define any stay: the Rila Monastery, an Orthodox masterpiece of vivid frescoes set at 1,150 metres, two hours away by road, and the UNESCO-listed medieval Boyana Church on the city’s edge. Mount Vitosha, thirty minutes from the centre, offers skiing in winter and panoramic trails in summer — a mountain at a capital’s doorstep, a rarity in Europe.
Airport transfer
Sofia (SOF)
Sofia Airport (SOF) lies 10 km east of the centre: allow 20 to 30 minutes to reach the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral or Vitosha Boulevard. Your chauffeur greets you in the arrivals hall with a name board and tracks your flight in real time.

Beyond transfers, your chauffeur becomes the key to the region — private itineraries, fixed prices, vehicle on standby at every stop.
Rila Monastery
120 km south, the largest Orthodox monastery in the Balkans: striped arcades, nineteenth-century frescoes, the Hrelyo Tower. UNESCO-listed, folded into the Rila mountain forests. Trout lunch by the river.
Ancient Sofia and the Boyana Church
Roman Serdica, the St George Rotunda, Alexander Nevsky and its icon crypt, then the 1259 frescoes of the Boyana Church — a milestone of European medieval painting, UNESCO-listed.
Mount Vitosha and its mountain trails
30 minutes from the centre, Sofia’s emblematic massif: the stone rivers of Zlatnite Mostove, panoramas over the capital, skiing at Aleko in winter. Half a day of mountain air without leaving the city’s edge.
Plovdiv, one of Europe’s oldest cities
145 km east, the superbly preserved Roman theatre, the old town with its Bulgarian Revival houses, the creative Kapana quarter. European Capital of Culture 2019, explored at your own pace.
Sofia evening
The National Opera or the Ivan Vazov Theatre, dinner at the capital’s new fine-dining tables, then Alexander Nevsky illuminated beneath the stars. Door-to-door drop-offs, vehicle on standby all evening.
Frequently asked questions
Private chauffeur Sofia — your questions
How much does a transfer between Sofia Airport and the city centre cost?
A private transfer between Sofia Airport (SOF) and the city centre is charged at a fixed price, confirmed at booking. It includes a meet-and-greet in the arrivals hall with a name board, real-time flight tracking and complimentary waiting time in case of delay.
Can the Rila Monastery be done in half a day?
We advise against a half-day: allow two hours of driving each way and at least two hours on site for the church, the museum and the tower. A full day also lets you add the Boyana Church on the return and lunch beside the Rilska river.
Does Bulgaria use the euro?
The local currency is the lev (BGN), pegged to the euro at a fixed rate. Our services are billed in euros at a fixed price, payable by card in advance — no exchange is needed for your journeys, and cards are accepted in most Sofia establishments.
