Boat riding on the amazing and mysterious Kamchia river and a short march through the last swamp forest in Europe!!!
Itinerary
Day 1
30 km. South of Varna lays the impressive nature reserve of the River Kamchiya.
The Longoza Nature Reserve covers an area of 842 hectares on the low banks of the Kamchia River as it flows into the Black Sea. It is not a usual forest as creepers some of which up to 50 meters long form a green curtain that is difficult to pass through. High century-old trees stoop over the river. Sunshine seeping through the branches creates a strange feeling of mystery. What you see there will remind you of a tropical forest. In fact this is the last representative of a longoz (swamp forest) in Europe. Over 40 tree and plant species thrive in this nature reserve. Some rare plants - the swamp snow drop, squall and goldilocks add to the magic of the forest
From the small resort Patrick your personal guide, will hire a boat and you will take an amazing ride up the river and possibly catch a glimpse of the local bird life - pelicans, kingfishers and waterfowl!

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
