A growing number of British nationals are buying houses not far from the coastline and in remote mountain villages with the intention to spend their free time amidst the quiet of Bulgaria’s well-preserved nature. And that is a good sign for the development of winter tourism in Bulgaria. During the exposition it became clear that the accommodation of the renewed ski centers has been 100% sold out until the end of February. Nearly 30 Bulgarian companies in the field of tourism presented their attractive offers for vacationing in this country for the coming winter season.The United Kingdom is one of the most important tourist markets to Bulgaria. So at the London expo our colleagues were discussing with their partners the occupation of facilities for the remaining months of March and April 2007. The idea is to expand the winter sports season so that more guests from the UK and other countries round the world can spend their ski vacation in Bulgaria”, Stanislav Novakov from the State Agency on Tourism said for Radio Bulgaria. This country ranks second after Island in the abundance of mineral water resources. This year they have focused on opportunities for spa and wellness tourism in Bulgaria. Tourists from the Isle choose Bulgaria both for their summer and winter vacations because of the wonderful conditions for recreation in winter resorts and along the Black Sea coast and the competitive prices of tourist packages. We have modern up-to-date facilities for this kind of tourism and so we should try and attract more guests not only from Great Britain but from the rest of Europe as well,” is the opinion of Mr. Winter is almost here and Bulgarian prestigious ski centers such as Bansko, Pamporovo and Borovets, are getting ready to welcome their first guests for this season.
