Got back form sunny beach on saturday morning, stayed at the summer dreams village,

stayed for 2 weeks, had a great time, went on a few excursions and best of all did not cost much, wife and kids loved it especially the shops, luckily there was usually a bar near by so i was happy to go with them

any questions please ask away :?: :D

Hi bombhead
glad you had a good holiday.
just a few questions if you dont mind... going out on the 9 sept to SB and its first time there.

What excursions are there to do ? and is there a market which is on everyday or just on one day if so which day? and where?

Because went to marmaris, turkey, this year and market day was on a thrusday so people told was to wait for that day because things are alot cheaper.
Also was your hotel anywhere near Yavor Palce , thats where we are staying.

thanks kel :wave

Hey Bombhead,

Im heading to SB on the 3rd of September (can't wait!!!). Would you recommend anything in particular for people in their late teens/ early twenties? i.e. any good nightclubs, shops, etc?
Reply
Kel, There is a market in SB. It is on everyday and is situated just behind the main road near to the Bus/Police station. Excellent bar Djanny's is also here.
Don't worry about clubs etc, there are a number in SB including Iceberg, Lazurs, you will see them advertised all over the place.
There is also one underneath the Hotel Kuban right in the main square, forgotten the name but it has an alien figure above the entrance.

We are going out on the 4th Sept. and are once again looking forward to it.

like most holidays we have been on, this was first choice, you get the chance to book a variety of trips on your welcome meeting with rep.

we went on 3,

bulgarian night, evening out to a local house you get food free wine and traditional folk dancing, £21 pp. not bad but very touristy!!

Sozopol by boat, 3/4 day, drip by bot to fishing town (1 1/2 - 2 hr each way) copule of hours in town to sight see, oh yes you get a beer and plate of chips in the price!!, £22pp. we found this a bit of a waste of a day, boat trip was ok, sunning ourselves on deck with a cold beer.

jeep safari, full day, this was one of the heighlights of our holls, off roading and messing about in the bulgarian countrside, you visit a 'traditional' bulgarian house, get refreshments, then in the afternoon you get lunch, and visit a 'brandy' distillary with free samples of course, be warned this is off roading you do get bounced around and tipped about, £29pp, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

other trips, lazy day cruise, 3/4 day trip, including transport, guide, lunch and drinks, on a sail boat, aound the bay and nessebar, £25pp

Saturday night live, typical reps night with all it entails, £12pp

Bougass trip, half day, quich guide of city then free time to shop!!, £9pp

these are jsut a few of the trips available, if you have an open mind and are willing to try it you should find sometning to please all, prices are per adult discount for children

hope this is of help

Hi bombhead

Did you book all your trips with the reps as would think of the jeep safari but was told last year it was not very good we are going out with first choice holidays and have never been with them before always been with balkan tours from Belfast.

hi tgilmour

yes we booked through first choice, there are places around SB that you can book with though, i suppose it is all up to what you expect, also your driver!!, ours was a bit of a nut!!!, saying that we i never felt in danger and he knew what his jeep was capeable off, as i said we thought it was a great day out

enjoy your hols
