A FRAGRANT ADVENTURE

I watched the virtual tour today! It was wonderful to see the set up & processing at the steel tanks and the pour of the days distillation of the beautiful rose oil. Then to walk over to the 100+ year old copper stills to see the active distillation in progress for the rose water was amazing. I hope that next year I will be there in person to also be able to enjoy the heavenly scent in person. Thank you to Filip & Konstantin (and all of the people who make the rose harvest happen) for sharing a little bit of your Heaven on earth. SOURCE: https://bit.ly/3pX2OPB

Thank you, Konstantin and Philip. I just finished the three of your virtual rose tours. So well done, and so gracious to share these snippets of the fields, the production, and the tradition. Very informative. I highly recommend that you view these. The quality and the work that is put into this production is excellent and the information that is shared is important for people to understand what goes into making fine quality rose hydrosol and rose oil. I'm inspired and look forward to when I can visit... SOURCE: https://bit.ly/33aJchm

Konstantin and Filip, you are doing such a great job! This short video brought me back to our Bulgarian Study Tour in 2019, an experience I will never forget. The whole organistion was perfect, we could see Bulgaria from a side, which not a lot people have the opportunity to see. And we met such great people from all over the world. Even if I didn’t watch the virtual tours (because I saw it in reality) I am sure it is worth it every single cent. Keep on going with your ideas.

I was thrilled to watch the virtual tour of the distilleries! What a wonderful journey through the new and old working buildings. Filip walked us through the process from the petals arriving at the very modern distillery, with its shiny stainless steel tanks, to the incredible drawing off of the final product of rose oil. Then off we went to the original (over 100 yrs old) copper stills to watch the rose petals being processed to produce rose water (hydrosol). Thank you!

Can't believe this incredible aroma journey is coming to an end. Within the short 6 days, I've learned so much from Filip, all the presenters, distillers and fellow participants on this amazing Bulgaria Professional Study Tour and enjoyed so much with the warm hospitality from Filip, Konstantin and all the genuine people I met during the Bulgaria journey. Heartfelt thanks to all my new friends. SOURCE: http://bit.ly/2RygYb5

This is my first Europe experience and was made very memorable because of our attentive and resourceful guide - Konstantin. Visits to the distillery, rose farms, rose picking, learning how to work with the precious rose oils in food and skincare has made the 16 hours flight from Singapore worthwhile. The delicious delicacies and cool weather were beautifully unexpected. Bulgaria has truly enchanted me. The culture, the people, the landscape has completely intrigued and impressed me. Be sure to see me next year. SOURCE: http://bit.ly/2RuE2HX

Bulgaria is a very beautiful country filled with an abundance of natural beauty from walks and hikes the National Parks with beautiful ancient woods with flourishing flora and fauna with sounds of streams, creeks, and waterfalls some of which with exhilaratingly breathtaking views. I was lucky enough not only to experience the historical cities but also made some amazing and memorable rose tours from rose picking all the way to distillery of which the owner himself shared his family history and the passion is in the air! ...

This tour deserves all the stars you can give. It was an outstanding experience, the perfect combination of business, culture, leisure, socializing. I had not expected to go on a professional tour and feel like I was on vacation. The organizers did such an amazing job creating the perfect relaxed and friendly atmosphere that people from different continents, countries, and cultures, people who had never met before, felt like they had been friends forever, and not only we had fun but also shared valuable knowledge and information.

I cannot believe it has been almost a month ago since I joined this tour. The organization was top-notch. This tour was a wonderful opportunity to touch the heart of the rose culture. It really was a great experience with great people in a great country. Definitely a 5 stars’ (or more if I could give) experience!! Thank you for everything and sorry for this late review, Konstantin! SOURCE: http://bit.ly/349bXss

I loved it! BST 2018 was amazing; a perfect combination of learning, cultural and holiday experiences. The itinerary was well balanced, the team was highly organised and very friendly. Working in the industry, the tour gives you deeper appreciation and understanding of the Bulgarian essential oils and other products. Hosting companies were very open and welcoming.

The study tour was an excellent way to both correct and confirm things learned in books and classes, but more importantly, it sent me home with not just more knowledge directly from the experts, but inspiration and appreciation for the story and the process behind the Rose oil. Truly, it made me understand its value- and definitely, now my standards for the rose oil are now much higher for my natural perfumery projects. SOURCE: http://bit.ly/355AKP8

I have had a lot of fun during the days the study lasted. The study tour was very well organized. Which made it easy for us who participated. My knowledge about cultivation, distillation and extraction has deffinately increased after this trip. As much as I have learned from the study tour itself, have I also learned from the others who participated in the study tour. SOURCE: http://bit.ly/2E1MQ02

Can I give this more than 5 stars? I would if I could. And, everyone knows I can't make this short or I wouldn't be true to myself and the organizers. Imagine if you will: you’re an herbalist and aromatherapist with a passion for all things living, the natural world. But you’re also a motivated entrepreneur with a business that is growing, hungry for every opportunity to embrace what you live for, what you love. I can’t say more, because I don’t want to spoil all the fun for the next group but if you’ve ever considered a professional tour, Filip, Konstantin, Nikolai, Palmen, Karina and the rest of the crew did an amazing job ...
