Intermediate Lessons

Hi Gang, We are off to Borovets at the end of the month, 28th. I am an intermediate skier with my daughter and wife just below. What lessons would you recommend? 1 full week of ski school or just book a few hours local lessons on arrival? Hopefully someone will be able to advise on experience of being in a silmilar situation.
This is our second year, last year was fantastic. Anyone with doubts, leave them at the airport and go with an open mind on a mission to enjoy yourself. Our group last ...

This is our second year, last year was fantastic. Anyone with doubts, leave them at the airport and go with an open mind on a mission to enjoy yourself. Our group last year of 20+ had a ball and only about 12 skied.

re: Intermediate Lessons

This year was our second year, and we all had Intermediate lessons everyday. The instructors will give the intermediates a quick test then group you according to ability. If you find it to easy you can always move up group or move down if you are finding it to hard.

But the importent thing is to ski and enjoy yourself.

Snow permitting.

We have booked ski packs (Crystal) which include ski hire, lift passes and 4 hours of intermediate lessons for £85 each.

If you have booked a package then ask about the ski packs it works out very cheap.

re: Intermediate Lessons

Thats a very good price - I think a lift pass alone is about £10/day!

re: Intermediate Lessons

Not a usual self boaster, but, I took advanced lessons last year all week, 4hours a day and it was great! Our instructor was nuts and took us all over the place. He really pushed us and having very (cocky) confident men in the group made it even funnier as they thought they could keep up with the instructor who competes in slalom skiing!, have the lessons you'll have a blast.
