My brother and I recently had a short ski break to Bansko - since I had used Traventuria before (and was pleased!) I made sure we booked all our equipment, ski hire, etc., through Traventuria, and I also booked our return shared transfers between Sofia Airport and Bansko from Traventuria. Everything went fine, staff were friendly and welcoming and I was very pleased with every aspect of my booking and the service and the price. Great location near the Gondola, great locker service and transfers were quick and safe! :)

This is probably the best winery in south Bulgaria for visits and tasting. Unlike most others you can just drop in during work hours and there will always be someone to show you around and conduct the tasting. The prices are great for the experience and quality of wine that you taste. The tour is interesting and informative. Buy the higher tasting package as it includes the best wines from Villa Melnik + a wonderful cheese and meats platter. Everyone in the winery is very friendly and this just makes the experience truly great. Last but not least - the view of and from the winery is nothing short of a Tuscan postcard!

Ski and Snowboard School SankiySki is a privately owned school created in Bansko by Bobi & Lubomir. After successfully managing the largest Ski School in Pamporovo for over 10 years, we always had a dream of one day operating our own Ski School and Hire business. Finally in 2009, we started to make our dream a reality and opened SankiySki School and Ski Hire in Bansko/Shop 1 - Pirin street 115, opposite main entrance of Kempinski Hotel/ . We are a family run business and have been offering a professional and personal service. While you are in Bansko we can provide you with all the equipment you could need and professional Ski lessons service. For 2018/19 SEASON we open our BRAND NEW SKI SHOP/shop 2 - Pirin street 121/! For our regular customers, it is 1 minute further up Pirin Street next to Victoria Restaurant. Our shops are in a perfect location, opposite the Kempinski hotel and just a short walk from the Gondola station and 2mins from the snow.

I can't recommend Sankiyski School highly enough! My husband and I visited with another couple from the 18th to the 25th Jan (a quieter week for Bansko). We were all mixed abilities but I had never been skiing before and decided to book 3 mornings of 2 hour private tuition. All email communication prior to the trip was very quick and efficient with clear instructions re pricing, where the shop was and when to come to be fitted for kit in advance. All the staff were very friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble whether it be helping me take my boots off after a fun but tiring day or offering a coffee whilst I waited for friends to finish. I had Janet as my instructor and she was fantastic - so much so I ended up booking lessons for the Thursday and Friday too after my first session with her! Really supportive with her guidance and let me pick things up at my own pace with no pressure and in a fun environment. By the end of the week I could tackle the Ski road and another blue run with confidence which was amazing considering on Monday I had never stepped foot in a ski before! My friends also ended up booking last minute snowboard lessons with the school after a bad experience with another provider which was no trouble at all thanks to Bobi. Highly, highly recommend for their professionalism and friendly staff. They genuinely want to help you and ensure you have a fun holiday rather than just churn people in and out to make a profit. Thank you so much Sankiyski School - I've fallen in love with skiing and we will definitely be back!

The service we received at Tsikiris was by far the best of our whole trip. The staff are brilliant and attentive from the first fitting to your departure. The equipment is great quality and the location is handy for the gondola. I would definitely use them again. The escalator in the shop is a dream after a long day and every single member of the team is friendly and helpful. A special thanks to the guys downstairs for helping my son find the perfect boots when he had sore feet and chatted to him every day, he thought they were so cool ????, and Ivo who would walk out of the shop at the end of the day to help me carry the skis back when my son was too tired , what a star! And the ladies at the reception desk you made my sons holiday when he got his medal, thank you x

Been going to bansko for 9 years and used method for the 1st time this year. The booking went smoothly and when we got there everything was ready for us. Excellent service every day and very helpful My girlfriend had a private lesson and this was the best she every had. She developed massively both in skill and confidence. Only minor downside was the opening time was 8am. Luckily the gondola queue was never too big but open 15min early would mean getting to the gondola for opening Highly recommended snow school will be booking with method again next season Thanks method see you next year

I was here at the end of December, just at the moment of the first very sunny day. It was SO good to walk around and see people on the streets, in the park, enjoying the weather in this beautiful park and city. Totally recommended.
