I used this operator before and don’t use anyone else now. Their prices are reasonable but most importantly everything goes like clockwork and you’re kept informed of any changes on the app to your phone so no surprises. This is a professional outfit.

Sofia Escape Room – Teorema Rooms

Interactive game
We tried the Atlantis escape room and had a great time! The game was a perfect mix of logical thinking and hands-on challenges, which made it really interactive and engaging. Communication and teamwork are also essential, so it’s definitely an experience you need to tackle together. Ani was our host, and she did an amazing job making the whole experience even more mysterious, immersive, and fun. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a challenging and entertaining escape room experience!

Excellent tour!
Our guide Vasko was excellent. He is really passionate about his job and the history of his country. He told us fascinating stories about the “communist” Bulgaria and managed to engage everyone. I am impressed that he managed to give a fairly unbiased overview of the recent history.

Rila Monastery and St. Ivan Cave History & Nature Trip from Sofia
Polkaguy, Sep 2026
Nice day trip!
Llubomir was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide, and this was a worthwhile trip. The bus was large and comfortable, and had power outlets at every seat. The monastery is pretty spectacular, and pictures don't really do it justice. The cave hike is just long enough, and make sure to eat at the monastery bakery!

Wonderful
Both the Seven Lakes and the monastery were amazing. The views along the hiking trail were unbelievable. Megi, our guide, kept a good and moderate pace throughout and stopped to explain the landscape around us. She was very professional and friendly, answered all our questions, and gave us all the information we needed.
