Plovdiv, Bulgaria Rowing Tour
April 6 - April 12, 2025
Description
The city of Plovdiv is a captivating destination that seamlessly blends ancient history with vibrant modern culture. As one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, Plovdiv boasts well-preserved Roman ruins, including the impressive Roman amphitheater dating back to the 2nd century. Its Old Town features stunning cobble stone streets, colorful 19th century houses and unique museums.
We will row daily in a stunning 2200m rowing canal in Plovdiv, the venue of choice for numerous international regattas, boat selection based on preferences and skill levels. The trip is open for rowers of all skill levels, and coaching is provided by Iva Boteva and other local coaches as needed.
Our beautiful hotel is situated right by the rowing canal (pictured above) at walking distance from the boathouse. We have some wonderful, guided afternoon activities planned, including a walking tour in the heart of Plovdiv, wine tasting experience in the country side, and a trip into the nearby Rhodope Mountains where we will visit a beautiful monastery along with an ancient fortress and some other places of interest.
