Ski Lessons

Do all companies use the same ski instructors in Pamporovo or are there different 'schools' . eg. Balkan, Thompsons, Crystal, etc etc

re: Ski Lessons

the ski instructors are employed by the relevant ski companies and in theory they should only teach that companies tourist, however you can end up with a ski instructor from a different operator to the one you booked with - this year I will be going with Crystal but my friend is a ski instructor for Ingams so will hopefully get in their group.... basically its a free for all but in an organised chaotic way

re: Ski Lessons

definatly e-mail and check price 1st and confirm with them. As not always cheaper.

re: Ski Lessons

I know that Balkan hols have excellent instructors. Has anyone had experience of Thompson ski instructors ?

re: Ski Lessons

They all one and the same. Each week they get issued with their listings. Just about every instructor will work for each and every tour company throughout the season.

They do not work specifically for one tour operator.

yep pete is right! no loyaltys the little skamps!

re: Ski Lessons

Only going on what my friends tell me, they say they work for Ingams and Crystal but not to worry as there will not be a problem getting me in their class if I book with Balkan or Thomson
