Borovets Late Jan

Hi All, new User to the forum, planning on a trip to Borovets in Late [28] January and wondered what peoples thought are on Tour operators versus Independant?? had a look at the big TOs and they are offering some pretty cheap prices for a package love to hear your thoughts

re: Borovets Late Jan

personally I like to do everything diy and that's because I can get easyjet flights local to me which have great flight times. I rent an apartment which will sleep 4 people comfortably and that's about £300 split between 4 and i can choose who i want to use for transfers, ski hire, lessons etc...

never booked with a TO, i have noticed a lot seem to be half board and that's something i wouldn't consider in bulgaria with the cost of eating out being so reasonable...

re: Borovets Late Jan

There are some good package deals to be had outside of school holidays and if you don't mind staying a bit further out - Victoria, Bor or Eidelweiss. If you book late these can be cheaper than a flight alone so is often still more economical even if you eat out. Apartments depend on how many people are sharing the cost for families, I would say look at the offers but for a group of paying individuals diy could be better. Having said that we DIY all the time!
