A highlight worth visiting on your trip is Plovdiv, the oldest inhabited city in Europe where more treasures await.

The car itself was very good for the road trip - I could hear a little strange noise at the lower transmissions, but had no problems with it during the entire week. The car was clean - both inside and outside. The drop-off was fast. I received the full value of my deposit two hours after drop-off. I was very nervous before the pick-up, but ended up with a great experience.
