bare in mind the ski school is approx £100 each that is much cheaper than sorting it out when you get there, for that you get 6 days tuition which you will need, at 4 hours approx per day....re: Help with my 21st
sadly, whatever way you look at it, its not cheap!
BUT, as ppl have said, go self catering, that makes it cheaper. You can eat out every night for next to nothing.
Shop around as well, but a must is get the packages for ski hire etc from this country. Do not wait until you are there. Its alot cheaper.
Because we are going for two weeks, our tour op cannot get us the 2nd week lift pass and euip hire until we are there. Because of this its costing us an extra £200 on top of the usual ...

And also dont forget your hotel is just somewhere to sleep (and enjoy the smell of oil heating) so dont get the most expensive place, cos you will never be there.

re: Help with my 21st
Ben that B******s what they mean is the ski pack is already included in the original holiday price (thats why it sounds so cheap) and they havent enough 'subsidy' in a two week price to give you two weeks packs at the same price. Thats why theyve said they cant do it till you are out there.re: Help with my 21st
I go for two weeks and hav got the ski package for both weeks with crystal- which company does this Ben just in case I decide to go again for two weeks I can avoid themre: Help with my 21st
Interesting. We have gone with crystal too. Our agent is now ringing them to find out what is going on. Gill, if possible, if they wont accept it, are you able to e-mail me or let me know your surname so that i can attack them with it.Thanks

re: Help with my 21st
sorry Ben, they may take mine off me!!!!!
mine is a two centre booking maybe that is the reason they can do it....
and..... I have not had the booking confirmation through yet, But... I will def check it when I do....
re: Help with my 21st
why not do two centres Ben if that is the case, it is no difference in price to booking in one centre (I don't believe), and then you can save money on the ski tuitionre: Help with my 21st
Ben, I rang Crystal and they said they book two lots of 6 day ski tuition - if I were you I would ring them direct yourself and ask, 0870 165 2616, I think your travel agent has got it wrong, they told me that if you went Sat to Sat you would have the 6 days then miss the middle saturday and start again on the Sunday as per normal... they double checked with their manager and had it confirmed that this was correct!re: Help with my 21st
FionaShop around for prices and you will be ok. The last 3 times I have been to Borovets I have paid between £220 and £320 all-in (well, minus tuition and passes) ie:
flight
transfers
half board accommodation by gondola
FYI, I rent my skis from the Rossignol shop below Hotel Ela. Reasonably priced, and excellent quality kit.
cheers

re: Help with my 21st
Ah.. Im not doing the ski tuition, im just buying a new lift pass. That could be why mine is different, because im not having the package as such.Fair enough
