Banskoapartments.com on this site state that there are regular buses from Sofia every hour. We were told when we were in Bansko in the autumn that they were only a few pounds each way. Don't know the times though. You would probably have to get a taxi to the bus station in Sofia and am not sure how far that is, but shouldn't cost that much. Do not use the taxi touts that come up to you in the airport they will rip you off. Use the yellow taxis outside and barter it is suprising how much ...

Just remember the average bulgarian salary is aout 150 Euros a month. There is also a train station in Bansko but we were told it takes about as long as the bus.

thanks alot for that, just to ask of a night what kind of clothes do women wear? and shoes we obviously can't wear high heals wud we wear boots??re: Transport??
Hiprice for a taxi return from sofia to bansko is 140 euros so would cost around 140 leva for a single
bus is 7 or 8 leva and dosen't take much longer about 3 - 4 hours depending on road conditions (it only stops twice) but you would need to get a taxi to the bus station in sofia and make sure you negotiate the price first (around 10 leva)
approx 2.74 leva to the pound
