re: Sofia to Bansko by Bus

Its a long way from the central bus station, in the south west suburbs. We usualy get a taxi from the airport out for 10-15lev

wow...now that changed the whole approach to it Neutral

we will probably still stay near the central bus station at the hostel i mentioned above and take the cab to Ovcha Kupel and catch the one at 7am

re: Sofia to Bansko by Bus

Ovcha Kupel is not as well organised as the central bus station as it is an old style station. You will need to look harder to find the correct bus. As is highlighted on the Bansko.org website
"Attention: Some of the buses are only passing through Bansko. The most of them have Gotse Delchev, Ognyanovo, Yakoruda, Bania or Eleshnitsa as final destination".

You generaly purchase your ticket from the driver on the bus.

Hey SirKaos,

you have to decide not any bus to bansko go from ovcha, some going from the central bus station, even these which are showed on there website, sorry i didn't post centralnaavtogara.bg
We stayed one night in Easy (Jet) Hotel really small rooms but anything else was okay. Not so far from Bus and train station by taxi maybe 6 lev. On the other side of the main road there is a supermarket Evropa called, where you can get in to buy anything you need even some water or drinking ...

re: Sofia to Bansko by Bus

You can check it out your self try with google ovcha , I think ,it is near to central bus station witch is maybe 6 km driving and 3,5 km airline away. If you use google they show you where anything is.

P.S. Better to go from Central bus Station your over Mostel, if it is on Lions bridge it is even closer to Central station
