Hotel SPA Samokov 4* with access to pool, Gym, SPA (Sauna, Steam, etc) – £25 per night including breakfast. The double room for two is £42
The hotel will give us a heated hall to use for ActroYoga / Yoga training. There are no mats, but I could check with other friends (the wrestlers in Samokov) whether we can borrow for a week some tatami or else. In the worst case scenario we can take own yoga mats
The lift passes – my recommendation: 6 days morning only (08:30 a.m – 12:30 p.m) – £145 during the main season and it is discounted for end of season by up to 40%, but I need to check and confirm this.
Equipment rental: Crown will rent ski/showboard equipment for as little as £10 a day if you do not have own
Instructors: I would recommend 1:1 or 1:3 (max). 1:1 = £25 per hour and £45 for 2 hours. To a group of 3 same skill students the cost will be in the range of 69 per hour. Group sessions are cheaper, but for Acro people who are super fit it will be a waste of time and money. I believe that an average Acro person of the ones I have met so far will be snowboarding/skiing ok in 4 – 6 hours
Transfers from and to Sofia will be in the range of £60
Evening meals will be form £5 and a beer is probably £2
The Bulgarian Acro community would love to have us there
There need to be an update for the prices as these rates are from 2019, but the only fluctuations will come from the decreasing sterling
