A lovely client of ours left a great review about their recent trip ski trip to Borovets with Balkan Holidays.
"I just want to email a picture of my recent skiing holiday in Borovets. We had a great time, and the reps were so welcoming. There was 11 of us and the resort didn't disappoint in skiing, apres-ski and nightlife. We had great conditions with snow the first 3 days and then blue sky on one day which is when the photo was taken.
