Begin at the Slava Submarine Museum, home to Bulgaria’s only preserved submarine. Step inside this Cold War–era vessel and walk through its narrow corridors, control rooms, and living quarters while learning about life aboard and the role of the Bulgarian Navy.
Continue to the Glass Museum, where skilled artisans demonstrate traditional glassblowing techniques. Watch how delicate glass objects are shaped and browse a collection of handcrafted pieces created on site. Lunch in Beloslav included*.
During the summer season, the tour includes a visit to the remarkable Provadia Saltworks, one of the oldest salt production centers in Europe. This fascinating archaeological site reveals how salt once played a crucial role in early civilizations and was considered more valuable than gold.
Throughout the day, enjoy scenic countryside views and engaging commentary from your guide. This private tour for up to 4 travelers offers a distinctive combination of military history, artisan traditions, and prehistoric heritage, making it one of the most unique day trips from Veliko Tarnovo.
