This accommodation only holiday to Lion Borovetz in Borovets, Bulgaria departs Saturday 22nd March 2025, for a 7 night stay on a "half board" board basis. A local tourist tax (Taxe de Sejour or Kurtaxe) is levied by many councils in European ski resorts. It varies by standard and type of accommodation and is age dependent, so not everyone is charged. It's not included in the basic price of your holiday and is usually paid locally. For reference, the average charged in winter 2024 was between €1 and €3 per person, per night.

Each of the 3 ski areas offers intermediates something a little different.
