We will be in Nessebar and Varna in September for a full day in each. We can hire a guide to get around so no worries about transportation, if needed. Since we have never been to Bulgaria we would like to take a tour each city with a guide, see the major sites and hear the history. What would you suggest we see? I haven't purchased a book but I have looked on line and it appears I need advice.
