For 4 years now, my friends and I have been traveling to Bulgaria through Albena-Travel (Kyiv). There are no claims to the work of the company. There are also TK-Welt and Appolonia-Tour, also serious offices, but we didn’t use their services ourselves, so I can’t say anything for sure.
You just need to remember that the bus trip from Kyiv to Sozopol will take about 30 hours (if you're lucky, you won't have to stand at the border for a long time). And no, even the most ideal travel agency is not able to facilitate your journey. The difference in price between a bus trip and an air flight will be approximately 1500-2000 UAH.

Buses have been running in TC Velt for 10 years already, this year a brand new 2-story bus made in 2008 is running. Although, I think the main disadvantage is that they travel through Chernivtsi. Through Odessa much faster! Albena Travel, aforementioned, does not let the buses itself, it buys seats from the same TC Velta, or from someone else.
As for air prices, I think that this year it will be possible to take inexpensive air tickets, unless, of course, in the super peak season - mid-August. For example, on 18/06 there are air tickets for 120 dollars Kyiv-Varna-Kyiv.

In 2009, we traveled 2 times with a travel agency, Trade Travel, to Bulgaria / the first time we rested on Golden Sands, and the second - in Sozopol. We drove through Odessa / the route is good / and therefore quickly arrived in Bulgaria. the family liked the trip in a comfortable bus, and we were pleasantly surprised by the sensitive attitude towards passengers. Of course, there were Ukrainian tourists on the bus, and their behavior was not only not intelligent, but simply boorish. ,, and they write who knows what on the Internet. Everyone has the right to decide which company to go with, where to get visas and buy a tour. But, this year we are going to go with ,, Trade Travel ,, in August. We liked it and that's what matters.

We also traveled with "Trade Travel" this year 2010. I liked everything very much... the bus is good, we arrived quickly, without problems, the bus has air conditioning, TV... no complaints. They also took accommodation in Sunny Beach ... everything is fine (and the prices are much more affordable than in other tour operators) !!! We are going to go next time with Trade Travel.

And we booked a tour with the tour operator "Alf" - a trip from 24.07.10 through Chernivtsi. When I arrive, I will write about our impressions.

People in no case do not contact "selena xx". Such bastards. I ordered a visa from them, they promised to open it in two weeks. for a month now, neither visas nor documents have passed. He says that they are at the consulate, although no one has the right to keep them there for so long. (And he cannot show receipts for paying the consular fee). with refusal. And all the end of dreams. In general, it is better not to experience this.

Horror! Responsibility 0. Punctuality 0 (waited for an hour, no one deigned to call to warn about the delay). Service 0. Accompanying what is what is not. The bus is dirty with air conditioning not frets. Stops in most of their WC "in the bushes" of the 21st century. I DO NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE NOT A TRIP BUT TORTURE.

Terrible! I do not advise! Do not travel with this office. NEVER! We went to Bulgaria in July 2016 (Kyiv - Sozopol) Their good thing is that we got to Bulgaria, we didn’t even really get back to Kyiv!
in order! We ourselves are not from Kyiv. We are 160 km from Kyiv. When buying tickets, we were immediately offered to pay everything in cash (send by new mail), they didn’t even hint at the contract! Only after the question - where are our guarantees? remembered that they have a current account and a contract. And at the end of the train it was clear why the original proposal sounded that way!
The road to Bulgaria: a half-empty bus, without an escort, Bulgarian drivers, as soon as something was wrong, they suddenly stopped understanding you! The bus is old, dirty, the interior is partially broken (shelves in some places were broken off and hung right over the aisle) It was cold on the bus . As soon as they entered the territory of Romania, they turned it on again. As soon as you left Ukraine, forget about stopping for the toilet and endure until the border, where a smelly cabin with a hole in the floor without water will be waiting for you. Arrived quickly! At 4 am we were already there. E

This is certainly good, but at 4 in the morning no one will accommodate you! you have to wait at least until 7 for people to wake up!
The way back is complete hell! In the morning we phoned the escort, agreed on the time. As a result, there is no bus at the right time! I call the attendant - does not pick up the phone, another 15 minutes pass, I call again. Answers that the bus is late for 10 minutes, we are waiting for it for 40 more minutes. In total, the bus was late for us by 1 hour!!!!!! They didn't even think to warn us about it. and no one who was taken away after us was warned !!! due to being late, we will end up in terrible queues at the borders! The attendant does not respond to a request to stop to use the toilet or buy water - they say there are buses behind us, there is no time, go to the border. At the border, everyone was waiting for a toilet in the bushes !!! The bus is terribly late! Declared time of arrival in Kyiv -17.00. At 14.00 we just entered Odessa! and then this chicken has time to take everyone to a common lunch on Okko and don't care that we're late. More is better! The attendant decides what is needed

stop by Zhytomyr, as people asked to be dropped off there! To come to Zhytomyr is + 2 hours of time! There are about 10 people on the bus not from Kyiv, who need to have time to transfer to a train or minibus, if they do not have time, they will have to look for an overnight stay. If you call in Zhytomyr, no one will have time to change seats anywhere. and in general we are terribly late, what else is Zhytomyr !!! Trying to explain this to the attendant! She pretends not to hear us at all! in the end, everyone messed up! A couple of hours later, the escort received a call from the office and was told that there was no Zhytomyr, go to Kiev, she was upset, but to see the order of the leadership .. We are going to Kyiv. 30 km to Kyiv, 20:30 on the clock - the tire bursts!!! + 40 min change the wheel. Since Kyiv is not far away, everyone starts calling friends for help to pick them up! so we did!
I will never go with this office again! irresponsible bastards! the accompanying finally frame - as soon as there are problems, she abruptly turns away and goes to the side.
