Changing Ski School

Hi, we are going on holiday with Balkan and think our Ski package is with Borovets Ski School, however we skied with the Samokov Ski School before and liked it, does anyone know if we are able to swap ski schools?

re: Changing Ski School

What hotel you staying at? I thought Balkan used Samokov ski school for all their guests but cant be sure mind!
I stayed at the Samokov and on the first morning there were guests from all their other hotels at our hotel waiting to collect ski hire and go into school.

re: Changing Ski School

Ive been in both ski schools and to be honest they are both as good as each other
Two good instructors to look for are Vladamir in Borosport and Hritoph (pronounce Christoph)in Samakov. The Samakov ski school had better ski gear but really nothing in it. The ski stores are within about 30mtr of each other .If you are in the samakov its just in the basement. if you are in Borosport its over the road just at the Gondola.If you require any more info please give me a posting.

re: Changing Ski School

We flew with Balken and the ski school was Samakov
