Yes Yes Yes Yes!

re: Pamps - Plovdiv 2010??

So ... if you go with a tour operator and take their transfers, how long does it take then?

re: Pamps - Plovdiv 2010??

Minimum 5 hours, I've been told. Maybe as much as 6.
You can imagine how I am looking forward to finding out on Saturday night....NOT. Hoping to get into bed by 3am Sunday morning, if we're lucky.

However, having done the Pamps-Thessalonika journey last year because of fog at Plovdiv, it should be a much quicker return to Pamparovo than my last exit.

How can it take 5 - 6 hours? Took us 2.5 hours on Monday? Ok it was a private transfer but still

re: Pamps - Plovdiv 2010??

Well, I can only hope I've been given duff info!

re: Pamps - Plovdiv 2010??

If it is 5 hours + and none of the big tour operators are using Plovdiv, this can't be good news for Pamps surely? Does anyone know why they've all pulled out?

re: Pamps - Plovdiv 2010??

anyone??

re: Pamps - Plovdiv 2010??

Might it be simply the financial implications of it being so frequently affected by fog? The cost of a diversion to Sofia or Thessaloniki must be significant, so maybe this is a way of more accurately budgeting for a season.

Just a guess, I'm afraid.

re: Pamps - Plovdiv 2010??

ok it depends on driving conditions .. having done this several times by coach the average would be about 3 to 3and half hours
