- Sofia (435 km / 270 mi). Located in the northeastern part of the country, the capital of Bulgaria has a very different atmosphere than the coastal area of the country. Sofia is home to many interesting cultural venues like Earth and Man Museum and Museum of Socialist Art; the city is also near the Vitosha mountain massif, a winter sports hub.
- Slanchev Bryag / Sunny Beach (102 km / 63 mi). Located on the way between Varna and Burgas, the quaint Sunny Beach has a much more relaxed atmosphere than the two larger coastal cities. Tugged between the sea and the mountains, Sunny Beach is the perfect place for doing water sports or simply enjoying the sea and the sun.
- Plovdiv (365 km / 227 mi). The second city of Bulgaria is one of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in Europe. Unsurprisingly, then, the city has countless fascinating historic sites and remains of the different empires that used to rule the area. In 2019, Plovdiv was the European Capital of Culture.
- Bucharest (279 km / 173 mi). The capital city of neighboring Romania, Bucharest has been rapidly growing in stature as a popular tourist destination. Mixing classical history with social heritage and contemporary vibes, the city is a hub of architecture and arts. To go from Bulgaria to Romania, you’ll have to cross the international border, so ask your rental car provider in advance if they permit it.
- Bansko (514 km / 319 mi). Located in the Pirin mountains, the town of Bansko has the average elevation of 1,200 m (3,900 ft). Bansko is a great hub of winter sports in the summer months and an amazing nature area for hiking and discovering in the summer months.
