In terms of dealing direct, you can either go directly to Borovets and see Gerry (female) and her husband and they run horse-riding trips from outside the Festa palace hotel - used to be outside the Alpin but they have moved slightly round the corner.

The other guys I would recommend is also Bulgarian and based in Samokov. I have their email details. If you send me an email I will forward you their details and you can deal direct with them. I know they tailor trips to include half-day or full-day, lunch etc etc. I think you have to be at least of an adequate riding standard to use their horses but you can sort this out with them.

I will also get Bobby to get prices and an email address for Geri (only has mobile) as I know they mainly take beginners.

re: Horse riding (Borovets)

Have just returned from Borovets , stayed in the Four Seasons in Samokov with Nik ( excellent again ). Went in the K Bar, several times met Ken a really nice fella and a cracking Bar. Went Horse Riding the back of the Rila slopes with Gerri and Petr of Butch Riding and we all had a fab time. Looking forward to meeting them all again in Feb. John
