The resort, people and Skiing were superb.We stayed in the Rila Hotel and have no complaints as this is one of the best hotels in the resort. The Ski School instructors were fantastic especially Ross and Tako, both spoke very good english and had a great sense of humor. We made many new friends both from the ...

We made many new friends both from the UK and Borovets itself- Hi to you all and hopefully see some of you next year; Can't wait to go back .

Hi B.W.
We travelled with Neilson and we have to say they were fantastic. We booked the ski package which included Ski School and and equipment hire which turned out cheaper than booking seperate. Not only that we found from talking to others that Neilson had more evening activities than other tour operators.

Hi Paul and Nikki! Looking forward to seeing the photos!!

Fantastic holiday! Just to add to what Paul and Nikki said, Borovets is a great place for beginners, is cheap to eat out and drink, and if you're in ski school you don't need to worry about travelling on your own, as there are always other people to meet. Our instructor Ross was superb, and our Neilson reps were always around if we needed them!
