This year, the search for offers for Christmas and New Year started as early as the end of August, with preferences directed mostly to guest houses near Bulgaria's mountain resorts. "Ten years ago, it was quite normal for Bulgarians to rent houses for the holidays at the last minute - in November or December. Then the prices were not so inflated compared to the rest of the year," says Velizar Gotsev from the platform for rural tourism in Bulgaria bgvakancia.com. And adds:
"Recently, villages around various dams have started to grow in popularity. For example, around Shumen and Varna there is a village called Lovets. It is located on the bank of the Ticha reservoir and is currently a very popular destination. The same applies to the village of Asparuhovo on the Tsonevo Dam.
There is a traditional interest in ethnographic villages such as Bozhentsi, Arbanasi, etc. But we are seeing more and more reservations for destinations, such as the town of Tvarditsa, for example. We have a sunken church, caves, monasteries around... There is also a ski slope that will be open this winter for the first time in 15 years. And this will be a very good alternative to more expensive resorts, because the prices of holiday packages in similar destinations are significantly lower," explains Velizar Gotsev.
