My husband and children are beginners and only want 2 hours lessons per day. The children have also said that they want ski lessons with us. Any ideas on what we should do?
Also, I've heard mixed things about credit cards. Will we be able to pay for things e.g lift passes on credit card?

re: Bansko queries
I will send you an email to your above address.re: Bansko queries
www.methodsnowschool.com might be able to help you - had thought they were snowboard only but seen they do ski stuff too.re: Bansko queries
we have done the same as you and booked hire and ski lessons through methodsnow school.com phone00359878622404 and speak to Ash the owner, very helpful guy. We have arranged private lessons for 2 of us for 2 hours a day for £295 with him. (ski hire extra)
You have to get the lift passes yourselves when you get there. Which appartments are you staying at?
We are going to Cedar lodge on 11th
re: Bansko queries
£ 295 he seen you coming
Two ski packs would have cost that and would have included ski hire, lift passes and 4 hours daily of tuition.
re: Bansko queries
But where can I buy the ski packs if I am going independantly? Also the children want to be with us in the lesson?
re: Bansko queries
I pay 100 leva for 4 hours private tuition 1:1 or 1:2 in Bansko. so 150 GBP for the week for twice as much time. Yeah, he stung you there.re: Bansko queries
Fifteen of us are going to Bansko in a couple of weeks. Booked independantly and got a great deal for passes, ski hire etc. BulgariaSki.com [[email protected]]re: Bansko queries
Leein reply to my earlier email - we had to fax credit card nos. to them for ski package. There was no problem, they just took a while to reply to emails and faxes
re: Bansko queries
Did the same as you last year, and our hotel arranged the ski pack for us. Try e-mailing your hotel to see if they can do the same. Otherwise try the intersport shop on the main street just across the road from the gondola. We hired our equipment from them and other people booked lessons.With regards to lift passes you can use your card and if you have a Nationwide card its even better cos they don't charge the 2.75% exchange commission. Be prepared to queue for your pass and if you get ...

Be prepared to queue for your pass and if you get sorted in under 30 mins-you have done well. Mal
