You can even use the bus, take only a taxi from the airport to the central busstation and check out your arrivaltime in Sofia so you can find out which bus you can get.Everyday a bus leaves Sofia at 7:30, 8:30,14:00 and 13.15 but not on sunday.
The price is 10 lev. Or check out the banskobus compoany
