The forthcoming summer tourist season will be unpredictable, said for the Bulgarian National Radio George Rachev, Vice Chairman of the Bulgarian Association of Travel Agents. In his view, Bulgaria's hotel business will again rely on domestic tourists. There has been an outflow of Greek and Romanian visitors. The uncertainty surrounding the possible vaccine passport is another serious problem.

Despite the problems, people will find a way to travel during the summer, contends George Rachev. "The European citizens saved a lot of money because they haven’t travelled recently and they have a strong desire to go on holiday," said George Rachev.
