Hire Gear in Bansko - what's best!?

Hi again... Smile

What's the best way to hire skis and poles in Bansko?

There are 4 of us, all intermediate skiers, with own boots, so just need skis and poles.

Is it best to do there or before in UK and where's best to book via?

If you're going through a tour op book before you go. Otherwise go to the hire shop at the gondola station and get them there. All new carvers, very good and the guys in the shop are good also it is just cheaper if you pre book from the UK.

Hi Val,

Lastminute are looking to charge

Is this a good price?

Looks like they are charging you for boots when I thought you had your own???

Yes we have our own boots, but they have set packages only.

Good price I would think. I went with Neilson last year and with them you could just pay for ski hire but it looks like lastminute don't do that. I have my own boots too.

I just had a pricelist through from an agent in Bansko it would work out at about £232 for your package.

Book it here it's cheaper
