5.00It was beautiful, the water in each pool was a different temperature. I loved trying each pool and worked my way up to hot . swimming outdoors with the snow on the ground was magical and the herbal tea provided was tasty. We had a lovely relaxing time there and a big thankyou to Magical tours Bulgaria who we booked with they were punctual, friendly and very knowledgeable about the countryside , I would recommend them to my friends. Well worth a visit .

5.00Yesterday we went to the lovely hot mineral baths. During the day you have a great view. In the evening it is very romantic with the lighting. Are you planning on proposing romantically to your partner then I would definitely make a reservation! Nice tour guide who is trained in tourism and you can tell! A lot extra about the area and Bulgaria learned. Great!!

5.00Dobrin was a great guide. He communicated well via Whatsapp to keep me up to date on the arrangements for the trip. He answered all my questions and was really friendly and informative. The hot springs are a perfect way to relax the body after a day on the slopes. There are various hot and cold pools, hydro massage and saunas. I would definitely recommend a visit there while you are in Borovets.

5.00Let's start from the beginning. Dobrin was a charming and nice man, picked us up right from the hotel, all along explained to us about every point we passed and was very patient. When we got to the complex he brought us inside and explained everything to us and showed us everything. Then we looked for a local restaurant and he took us to a lovely place and the best restaurant we had ever eaten . Warmly recommended! We're here for another six months and we know he will accompany us throughout the trip!

5.00Very good service from Dobrin our driver/guide, very knowledgeable about the area. The Thermal pools/jacuzzi were really enjoyable, various different temperatures, with cold plunge pools! There is also a small climbing wall/rope ladder and climbing rope, great fun. Also lovely scenery. If ever back this way would definitely do again.
