re: Advice For New Travellers To Bulgaria

Hi all,

can anyone fill in a bit of info regarding coach transfers to Pamporovo. Flying in to Sofia on 12th March and aware of lengthy transfer.

Can anyone advise if there is a comfort/food/drink stop on the way etc? 3.5-4 hrs solid on a coach doesn't sound fun and it will be dark so can't even enjoy the scenery!!

One thing we have found out that even though we wont arrive until about midnight the Hotel have told us that food will be available on our arrival.

Jason.

Hi Benn,
Can't wait for the meet W/C 22nd Jan, I also am crying with laughter, are you coming to the meet dressed as a gypsy, in recognition of the work they have down in getting it to snow??

Hi Jay

yes there is a comfort stop, one way was a service station, with a cafe and the other was at a mcdonalds, dont know if they stop at the same place everytime. You get enough time to get a drink and a quick bite and go to the loo.
