Vasil Levski Sofia Airport is Bulgaria's main international gateway, ensuring a smooth start to your journey. As a key hub, the airport connects you to major European business centres and global destinations.
Since it's located just 10 kilometres east of central Sofia, you can choose from several convenient transport options. Drivers can utilise various secure parking zones, including P3 for standard parking, P4 for long-term stays, and P5 for short-term stays and drop-offs or pick-ups. If you're using public transport, hop onto the metro to reach the airport easily from the city centre.
Thanks to advanced baggage handling and biometric screening, you can seamlessly pass through security and border control. Before proceeding to your boarding gate, relax in the Sala VIP lounge, located after security on the second floor. You can also admire the airport's modern infrastructure, including the striking 50-metre control tower.
Ho Chi Minh City, still affectionately known as Saigon, is Vietnam’s most dynamic and economically vital metropolis, offering an electrifying fusion of French colonial history and relentless, modern momentum.
Prepare to be swept up in the high-octane energy of a city that acts as Southeast Asia’s fifth-largest economy outside of a capital city. Explore the stunning architectural blend of colonial heritage and contemporary skyscrapers along the stylish Đồng Khởi Street. Here you will find international brands next to historical landmarks like the Central Post Office. You can shop for local specialities and textiles at the iconic Bến Thành Market, or delve into the country's profound past at the Reunification Palace. The city is celebrated as Vietnam's culinary capital, so be sure to try the legendary street food available on every corner, from a perfect bowl of "phở " to the southern-style savoury pancake, "bánh xèo". For an illuminating historical excursion, take a trip out to the legendary underground network of the Cu Chi Tunnels.
