For Christmas my husband and I decided to go skiing in Bulgaria. We chose a tour operator for a long time and settled on Mouzenidis Travel. we know him as the leading operator in Greece and flew with them on vacation in the summer (were very satisfied with the service). First of all, I want to say that we settled on the advantages of this company: they offered us a flight not to Sofia, as everyone is used to, but to Thessaloniki (there is an excellent road from this city to Bansko).

For Christmas my husband and I decided to go skiing in Bulgaria. We chose a tour operator for a long time and settled on Mouzenidis Travel. we know him as the leading operator in Greece and flew with them on vacation in the summer (were very satisfied with the service).
First of all, I want to say that we settled on the advantages of this company: they offered us a flight not to Sofia, as everyone is used to, but to Thessaloniki (there is an excellent road from this city to Bansko). Very quickly, within 5 days they opened a Schengen visa for us, and most importantly, they provided us with FREE TRANSPORT OF YOUR EQUIPMENT !!!! ! This made us very happy. We got from Thessaloniki to the hotel within 3 hours, the bus on which we were taken had free WI-FI and played Russian films.
We lived in the Korina Sky Hotel 3 *. I want to say a little about this hotel. Firstly, we did the right thing by taking HB food for ourselves. The food at the hotel was simply gorgeous, but just at lunchtime we were constantly on the mountain and ate there. Food in Bulgaria is very cheap! Secondly, the owner of the hotel was very welcoming and responded positively to all our wishes. The rooms are very comfortable and clean! Cleaning goes every day. There was a Russian channel on TV. And most importantly, this hotel is a 5-minute walk from the city center, where we went for a walk every evening with my husband. In the center we found many different shops and mechanics. Sometimes in the hotel itself we went to the sauna after a hard day of skiing! The sauna is very clean and good. The gondola lift is only 200 meters from the hotel.
The host office was located right next to the ski lift, we at any time turned there for questions of interest to us.
All 6 nights flew by very quickly, the last night we were transferred to Thessaloniki to the Grand Hotel Palace 5 *, where we booked the last night. The hotel is simply chic, the service is at a high level, and most importantly, not far from the city center, so my husband and I also went and walked around the night Thessaloniki and did some shopping, because. There are a lot of brand stores there.
In general, we were very satisfied with the service and rest in Bulgaria.

We went to the ski resort for the first time. at that time, Turfima Neva was able to offer us only Korina-ski from her 3-stars, all the rest were booked, there was no information about him and we took a chance and, probably, in vain. At night, when we arrived, the representative and the driver strayed for a long time, although then we found out that the hotel is located very close to the main Pirin street, not far from the hotel "Strazhite".

climb on a banquette. And in the morning they unpacked their suitcases faster, got equipped, went downstairs, they were supposed to send transport for us to the ski lift, where a guide from the Neva was waiting for us (we didn’t know that we had to go to the ski lift for 5 minutes), the girls on duty in Russian they don’t say, we tried for a long time to get them to contact her, It’s useless, it ended up that the tenant of this hotel Stoyan himself drove us (well, very pretty) speaks Russian and he said that the hotel is new and besides us, a Macedonian family is still living. We are the first, in general, we felt sorry for him and we did not ask to be relocated. in fact, we came to ski and not look out the window. It’s bad that we didn’t take a kettle, they have decaffeinated coffee and chamomile tea, and in general, such breakfasts did not need to be paid in advance, especially because of the long queues on the lift, they left without breakfast (before 8 o’clock they couldn’t cover it, it’s hard to understand, warm water and put raw smoked sausage on plates, in Panorama breakfast started at 7.30 without any problems). In the hotel, heating and hot water are almost always turned off, I had to speak several times , otherwise our damp clothes, hung on a string brought from home, did not dry out. We went to the sauna once, and then they turned it on reluctantly, although the jacuzzi and sauna are included in the price. This is all, I think, from poverty, they are scarce there live, and everything is new, clean,
two TVs. refrigerator. There is no hair dryer. Well, I had it with me, we dried our clothes with it. But in general, the rest is good, delicious inexpensive food in different mehans, excellent skiing, I think we will come here again, but not in the high season, when there is a lot of backgammon and prices are twice as high.
