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! :)

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

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!

Ski and snowboard school in Bansko.Lessons with professional ski and snowboard teachers. Rent of ski and snowboard equipment.
Reviewed By MatthewN302 - Bath, United Kingdom
1 minute from gondola and very friendly staff and instructors. After reading many reviews, Ski Geogre did not let us down for ski hire and lessons. We booked 4 days of lessons, 2 hours each for my daughters aged 10 and 13 who could ski and seperate lessons formy wife and son who had never skied before. Both instructors were good but Vasel who looked after my wife who was nervous was fantastic and helpped progress her and my son. He mad it interesting and took them away from the main section to help them learn. He was very patient and looked afterthem both.They take the time to help and support and fully recommend them over some of the bigger companies. Tip for missing the gondola queues 1) get there by 7.45am otherwise you will miss your 9am lessons 2) when coming from car park, join right hand queue as faster if both queues look the same 3) pay 10lev each and get a taxi 4) Drive up to one of the car parks by the top gondola station. If car park 1 is full, you can park in 2 or 3 and jump on ski run 1 right at the end, which you can ski down straight into the top section.

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
