How to get there

Recommended Airports

Arrival by car

There are several car hire companies available at the Sofia Airport. Due to the poor road conditions, they strongly advise you take out the full extra cover at around 8 EUR per day.

Airport transfer can be arranged directly to place of accommodation. The cost is about 150 BGN.

Arrival by airplane

Flights can be taken to Sofia, Bulgaria (SOF) or Bucharest, Rumania (OTP). Both are about a two and a half hour drive away from their center.

Bucharest in Rumania can be used as an alternative airport to Sofia, the distance is the same. However, transfer through Romania to Bulgaria is a little more problematic and car rental has additional insurance costs as you cross borders.

Arrival by bus

The coach service is effective and comfortable and buses to Varna via Veliko Tarnovo run hourly. They recommend a taxi to the bus station from the airport for about 10 EUR. The bus will be about 22 BGN.

Cancellation Policy

  • A reservation requires a deposit of 29% of the total price.
  • The deposit is non-refundable, if the booking is cancelled.
