I have just come back from borovets for the second time. The equipment handout is a bit of a free for all. There is not alot of organisation, so on the first day be prepared for a long wait before you even find your instructor. The instructors just walk around asking if your beginners or intermediate and shove you in to a group from there. Its best once you have your equipment is go up to Ski Instructor(they all wear black & red borosport Ski jackets) it will save you lots of time.

I like the place though, cheap food & beer decent enough snow to be able to ski, ENJOY!

Barbara, there are a variety of ski schools, I dont want to contradict Glenn but im sure borosport are yellow and black, samakov red and black and rila mostly green. Albena are a mixture of maroon and grey from memory. There is definately a hierachy with the schools, borosports see themselves as superior due to owning most of the lifts etc.Just as easy to stick to the hotels own, though if it were me id go for the samakov school, more seasoned pros there

Hi,
Thanks for your opinions, I'll go to Samakov School (red and black), I hope that in the end of the week I can already go to the hotel with the skies on my fetts, eh eh eh eh I'm a begginner.
Sory about mistakes but my English is so bad! Confused
Well, thank you and if you have more advices...please give them to me.
