taxi fares?

staying at the lion hotel borovets on 27, apparently the free bus gets very busy and stops early? its about a 15 minute walk, anyone know what a taxi fare is for that sort of trip?

re: taxi fares?

depends on whether they feel like scamming you or not!

Agree a price before you jump in.

we had a ride in the horse and cart in borovets and asked the price before we began our jurney, when we got out the man tried to get double fare from us, when my husband said to him the agreed price he tried to make out that was the price each, mark said to him one jurney and gave him the agreed fare only

Hi Patrick,just got back from Borovets we stayed at the Yagoda Village,we also had a shuttle bus but it was very busy so we used taxis everyday we were told not to pay any more than 10 levs one way anywhere in Borovets,i can confirm taxis are plentiful and just agree 10 levs before you get in and you will be fine,we never tipped them either but still found them really friendly,any other info needed contact me cheers Paul
