Money
Bulgaria’s currency is the Bulgarian lev (BGN). Carry a payment card and some local currency for situations where cards may not be accepted.
Transport
Research rail and bus connections for each intercity journey. Mountain and rural routes can take longer than expected.
Weather and Clothing
Pack according to season and region. Mountain trips require more preparation because weather can change rapidly.
Health and Safety
- Carry essential medicines and prescriptions.
- Save accommodation and emergency contacts.
- Check mountain and road conditions before outdoor trips.
- Follow rules in protected areas and heritage sites.
Before You Leave
