Transfer from Borovets to Bankso?

Hi all,
Does anyone know how i can organise a transfer from Borovets to Bankso? Also, day lift and transfer prices too if you know it. I am thinking of heading over there for 1 day since its miserable here in Boro.

Many thanks
Mark

Hi - we were in Bansko on Weds and Thurs this week. Unless there has been a considerable amount of snow since then, I wouldn't waste your money. The runs were getting ropey, lots of holes, mud and grass, we agreed that they would probably have to close them today so didn't go back. Also most of the lifts were closed due to high winds. If you decide to go, the lift pass is 55L for a whole day or 41L for half a day. You also have to pay a returnable deposit for the electronic card. ...

We got a transfer through our ski school - 2 hours each way!

Hi Pete
Sorry for delay - just flown back to UK. Its really cold here!!
We were with Hunters Ski School - highly recommended they couldn't do enough for us. If they could have provided snow they would have!! They didn't charge for the transfer - covered the cost of coaches themselves.
Hope things improve for you Smile

Hi,

We have just arrived back and conditions in Borovets were terrible, we literally didn't go down one run all week! Like Elizabeth, we booked through Hunters and they were great. We managed to go to bansko 3 times which was a long trip, but worth it. Hope you get some snow!
