Founded by a group of mountaineers, today Odysseia-in is a leading adventure and cultural tour operator in Bulgaria, known for authentic accommodations (including homestays), unconventional routes, and high-quality guides. They specialize in small-group, eco-conscious travel and can design self-guided tours as well. Their itineraries perfectly blend adventure, culture, and culinary experiences and they truly shine when it comes to personal service. It’s why we trusted Odysseia-in for our month of exploring Bulgaria in September 2025.
Odysseia-in Review
Odysseia-in offers small-group and tailor-made adventures that span the all of Bulgaria, blending active exploration with authentic cultural encounters. Their trips range from multi-day hiking and trekking expeditions in the Rila, Pirin, and Rhodope Mountains to wildlife and birdwatching tours, cycling holidays, snowshoeing and ski touring, and immersive food, wine, and craft experiences. On their website, you’ll find detailed itineraries complete with activity levels, durations, seasonal recommendations, and prices.
Accommodations are carefully chosen to reflect the character of each region, from family-run guesthouses and boutique hotels to eco-lodges and traditional mountain huts. While hiking is often a centerpiece, tours also feature rich cultural experiences like wine tastings, monastery visits, and folk music performances. Across every itinerary, the focus is on genuine connection, creating journeys that are as memorable for their human moments as for their landscapes.
