What to remember

The tour isn't suitable for disabled people
You’re strongly recommended to wear a hat and a pair of sunglasses, as well as to use a SPF, because Plovdiv can get very hot during the summer
You're also suggested to bring some warm clothes with you, even during the summer, because Koprivshtitsa is located in the mountains, more than 1000 m above sea level, and the weather conditions can change within minutes
Most of the streets in Koprivshtitsa and the Old Town of Plovdiv are cobbled, so you’re strongly recommended to wear comfortable walking shoes

Please note that payment by credit/debit cards isn't possible everywhere (ex. at museums). There are cash machines in both Plovdiv and Koprivshtitsa, but you’re strongly recommended to already bring some cash (BGN) with you
