The distance from Plovdiv airport is 75 km, road goes in the mountain but it's not a bad one. 1.5 h of driving it is. Well waiting time is something else.

The transfer is 3 1/2 hours when the roads are in good condition.

Balkan Holidays advertise the transfer as 3 1/2 hours?

Don't do it! Use Sofia instead.

If you are delayed don't say you weren't warned!

Enjoy Bansko though Very Happy

Not done this transfer but know people who have. Apparently they make no stops so take food and drink with you.

It will all be worth it. Bansko is superb.

Val Very Happy
