Dear Pamporovo Pete,

From this forum I can see that you have a lot of information/ knowledge about Pamporovo.
Can you please tell me how much aprox. the prices will be for EU-members to buy a 6-days ski-pass and to rent ski equipment (shoes, ski)?
Thank you in advance!

Do not buy at resort as the price will be almost double than that in the uk. Just book with your tour operator Very Happy Your ski pack can be as low as £100!!!

Hi Ronald,

Sorry I am late in replying, only just managed to get on-line.

As others have said, it is much cheaper to book all your ski requirements directly with your tour operator, otherwise you will pay at least double in the resort. Travel companies buy in bulk and can determine much lower prices, but in resort you are a captive customer and you will pay the full rate. That is not an inflated rate, but as I said, travel companies get them much cheaper.

In the UK a full 6 day pack ...

In the UK a full 6 day pack of lessons, ski, boots, poles and lift pass will cost approx. £100 in total. In the resort a lift pass alone will cost more than that.

Dear Pamporovo Pete & the rest,

Thank you for the information. I think your agancies have made a better deal in Pamporovo than mine because I have to pay about 270 euro for equpment and pass. That's more dan 100 GBP, almost double even. Maybe for my case is better to wait and do that in Pamporovo.

re: Message for Pamporovo Pete

Still dodgey Ronald.

Do you really want to spend your first morning of skiing trying to sort out hiring equiptment? Then sorting out a lift pass, then trying to sort out a ski school?

Up to you mate, but I would recommend booking in advance and preventing any hasttle.
