Just back from an incredible week in Borovets. Our instructor Alex Savchov was by far the best ski coach I’ve ever had. He was able to pick up on all of our individual faults and explain how to improve them with clear and simple guidance. He listened well to what we wanted as a group, and pushed us to achieve our goals collectively and individually. He was very knowledgeable of the slopes and knew which ones would be busiest on certain days so could make sure he took us to the quietest and best slopes every day - we had some amazing skiing. Alongside this, he kept us all laughing all week! Cannot recommend him enough! We will be back, and I will certainly be asking for Alex again! Thanks Alex/Delilah 😉

I have just completed a week of Borosport Ski School with Alex Savchov. What a brilliant instructor! Alex's ability to work with us individually as well as a group was really impressive. He helped us to make significant technical improvements that took our skiing to the next level. A talented instructor who genuinely wants to help you improve as a skier. We all want him to work with us again next year. Highly recommended.Thank you Alex.

First time snowboarding, Rumen our instructor was a great coach and helped us from the very basics to taking us on the slopes. By the end of the week, I had been on multiple lifts and the gondola numerous times. 10/10 would recommend to any beginner.
