Private Day Tour from Sofia to Kazanlak – Discover the Valley of Roses & Rose Oil

Private Day Tour from Sofia to Kazanlak – The Fragrant Valley of Roses
Leave Sofia in the morning and travel in comfort on a private transfer to the lush heart of Bulgaria’s rose-growing region. Our private day tour from Sofia to Kazanlak will take you into the famous Valley of Roses (Rozova Dolina) — known for its fields of the oil-bearing Rosa damascena and its rich heritage of rose oil production.
Comfortable Private Transfer from Sofia
Your driver will pick you up at your hotel or chosen location in Sofia. Enjoy a scenic ride through the Sredna Gora region and the gentle Bulgarian countryside en route to Kazanlak. The journey is private, flexible, and allows for photo-stops or short breaks when you wish. We provide modern, air-conditioned vehicles and English-speaking drivers who know the route and local highlights.
Experiencing the Valley of Roses & Rose Oil
On arrival in the Kazanlak region, you’ll enter the iconic rose fields where the Damascena rose has been cultivated for centuries. The perfect climate and soil of this valley make it one of the world’s prime producers of rose oil.
During your visit you will:
-
Walk among blooming roses, take photos and enjoy the fragrant atmosphere.
-
Learn about the traditional process of extracting rose oil — how petals are picked early, distilled and made into essential oils.
Visit the “Ethnographic Complex Damascena” or a local rose oil distillery (depending on season & availability). -
Optionally, attend or time your tour around the Rose Festival in early June — a vivid cultural event with parades, traditional costumes, and rose harvesting rituals.
