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

Everything was perfect. Since we arrived, George had patience to explain us the details and to decide on ski schedule (we booked 4 days x 3h for our son and 2 days x 2h for me and my husband). We want to say a BIG THANK YOU to Lazar, the instructor who went with our son on the top slopes and who took very good care of him, although our son doesn't speak English. He brought him safe everytime back and he skied very well. And we want to say a BIG THANK YOU to Val, our instructor who passed the test of patience with us (especially with myself) and who made me overcome my fear of skiing and to exceed my own limits! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to you and your helpers (the pink unicorn and the rabbit ????). Good luck to all of you and may you have a great year ahead! Diana, Adi & Edi

As a first time skier I was unsure what to expect. But our hosts at #snomads suggested we book lessons with Ski Mania. We had three, two hour group lessons over our week. Our instructor Dimitri was like a “Jedi” master. He was able to plant the skills and knowledge in my brain! But on a serious note he was quietly spoken and very attentive. He was extremely observant and had a great way of explaining the correct way to ski and correcting any errors. At the end of the three lessons, I am now able to parallel ski and was given the skills and confidence to throughly enjoy my week. Would highly recommend Ski Mania. Thank you Dimitri ⛷????

We are very happy with our choice of ski school Snow Peaks and mostly with our ski instructor Dido who was in duty for our 4 years old daughter. He was always on time and was staying with us until the last minute of the lesson (even little more if needed), although my daughter was tired some times. My daughter got a great progress and for only 6 days she was skiing alone along the whole piste doing many turns. I am very satisfied with his attitude towards my daughter, the way he was talking to her and the way he was encouraging her. The most important thing for me is the fact that she still wants to go ski again.

First time in Bansko and first time skiing. We were a family of five with kids aged 16,13 and 11. We were pleasantly surprised with everything from the gondola queues to slopes and lessons. Booked everything through traventuria, car transfers, ski rentals and lessons. Everything went smoothly from the moment we arrived. We went from complete novices to going on the blue runs comfortably by day 4. We had a 8 min walk from our hotel, Guinness to the rental shop traventuria, then got our stuff from lockers on first floor, we had 2 as could only comfortably fit 2,3 person ski stuff in there( ski helmets,goggles, skies, poles and boots). We then walked with our gear on to gondola took another 15 min ( only actually 5 min walk). Please note not easy carrying 2 sets of skiers esp your kids ones. We normally got to gondola around 8.30 and would get on cable cars within 10-15 min but If you get there for 9 you can look at 30-40 min wait as gets busy fast!! The cable cars takes another 30 mins to get to the slopes. Also leave early before 3 pm to avoid huge queues, we made this mistake on last day!took us 45 min to get on the cable cars We booked 4 hr lessons but mostly were given on average 2 hrs per day by the instructor. Will be returning next year but hopefully will book ski rentals next to gondola to save the hard long walking distance with skies on.

Ulen: We read negative reports about Ulen before we traveled that in our opinion are simply not true. At least not currently. Everyone we encountered was friendly, helpful and smiling. The entire ski area is run by amazing Ulen staff. The Gondola, the ski lifts, the restaurants on the slopes - everything. From the little old Babushka ladies who cleaned the tables and bathrooms (spotless, with lots of toilet paper, hand towels and HOT water) that serve thousands every day, and who grinned back at us with toothless smiles when we said thank you, to the uniformed man who immediately reached out to rescue me as I slipped getting off the Gondola once, every Ulen staff member was there to make sure we had a safe and wonderful ski experience. Ski equipment: In addition Ulen has a ski school and rents equipment like many others. Our travel package included renting our ski equipment from them. Yes, as noted in previous posts the equipment was not new, but we were beginners and it did not matter. Petr, in the equipment room, was, in particular, very helpful. He willingly changed my boots after the first day at my request. He then remembered me from among thousands and greeted me with a big smile every morning and each evening, helping me on and off with my boots. Georgi was also very nice when I returned my equipment the last day. Thank you to all the hard-working Ulen staff for great service with a smile!
