Borovets Money

Hi

Are there are any cash machines in Borovets or are we best to take Euros to change at the banks?

The ATM's are currently down ... however with a passport and your cash card you can draw money from the exchange shops.

Bring as much sterling as possible. Rates are at 2.80

The Post office will often be the worst rate around. They advertise commission free, however what they fail to mention that they rates are low compared to others.

Take cash, sterling will do. atms are empty most of time, keep credit card for top up funds, you will need passport also and local supermarket will exchange for you
