One van instead of several taxis
Landing in Sofia with a group of friends or a couple of families is the easy part. Getting everyone, plus skis, boards and suitcases, up to the mountains is where it usually gets messy. With a private van you skip the queue for several taxis, nobody gets split up, and you all arrive at the hotel at the same time.
- You pay for the vehicle, not the seats – five or eight of you, the fare stays the same. Shared between everyone, it often works out cheaper than booking two or three separate cars.
- Room for your gear – skis, boots, snowboards and luggage travel in the same van as you.
- No prepayment – you settle with the driver once you have arrived.
- Door to door – no shuttle stops, no waiting for strangers, straight to your accommodation.
Which vehicle fits your group
Up to 4 people travelling light? A sedan is enough – 100 € to Bansko. Up to 6, or a lot of bulky luggage? Take a minivan – 140 €. For up to 8 passengers with skis and snowboards, we send a van. If you need a child seat, tell us when booking.
Travelling with a bigger group
Ski clubs, school trips, company weekends – when you are more than eight, we simply send several vans that leave together. Let us know how many people you are, how many pairs of skis and boards you are bringing and your flight number, and we will suggest the right number of vehicles.
Booking the return trip
You can book the ride back at the same time. We agree a pickup time at your hotel that works with your flight, so you reach the airport comfortably. On snowy days we leave a little earlier to allow for slower roads.
Borovets, Bansko or Pamporovo?
Borovets is the closest resort to Sofia, so you can be skiing on the day you land. Bansko has the largest ski area and a lively town for the evenings. Pamporovo sits in the Rhodope Mountains – the drive is longer and twistier, but the resort is quiet and popular with families. For Bansko and Pamporovo we can also collect you in Plovdiv.
Frequently asked questions
What if our flight is delayed?
The driver waits for you. Waiting for a delayed flight is unlimited.
Will our skis and snowboards fit?
Yes – the van is chosen precisely for groups with equipment. Just tell us how many pairs of skis and boards you have when you book, so we plan the space.
What about snow on the road?
Our cars are prepared for winter and our drivers drive these mountain roads all season. In heavy snowfall we drive more slowly, so allow a bit of extra time.
Can you pick us up from an address instead of the airport?
Of course. Give us any address in Sofia, Plovdiv or another town and the driver will come to your door.
Is the price per person?
No. The price is for the whole vehicle, not per seat.
When do we pay?
After the ride. We do not ask for prepayment.
