I think this review is very generous. I just returned from there. €260 approximately for a basic lift pass. More for deluxe pass. Queues around 2 hours. Bus fights (no queuing just whoever gets there first) 40-50 min wait but have to pay more. Restaurant reviews accurate, definitely try the local restaurants, some absolutely amazing food. Night life is good too. Would recommend bar at base of the gondola, two bars with good music. Aprés vibes
340 Euros for a six day VIP pass, that seems like such a bargain compared to the ski resorts here in California. That whole place seems like a bargain now especially with the current exchange rate. Wish I could be there, right now we are snowed in at Tahoe, we either get not enough snow or too much snow lol
I like how costs are very relative, depending on where you live. For the U.S. resorts 340 for 6 days seems very cheap, but for me it seems very expensive :D I live in Montenegro (South East Europe) and here I can buy a seasonal ski pass for 300 Euros. And you still get nice lifts, charming place, lots of freeride capacity and you don't ever wait to get on the lift for more then 5 minutes. I would love to snowboard elsewhere also, buy for now, it's a bit to expensive for me.

@@BatkoBrat even compared to Alps the skipass isn't cheap it's nearly the same price as for a port du Soleil pass which give you nearly 600km of ski runs, but for sure the accomodation cost is way cheaper.
@@Kti432 interesting to hear you say that. I’ve obviously never been, so I wouldn’t know. I have watched other reviews of places I have skied, and found them to be quite accurate. Would like to hear your thoughts. Cheers.
Hi. I would like reviewed, in no particoular order the following resorts: 1. lech am arlberg including the full ski arlberg ski area. 2. Silvretta montafon. 3. brixen im tale. 4. folgarida thanks for the amazing videos. I would like detailed reviews of all the ski resorts mentioned above. have a great day
Great video, Im coming for new year i was just wondering if anyone knew any good places for new years eve to book for food and drinks with live music and a party, apart from euphoria as my girlfriend doesnt like the menu. Thanks
Oh God, don't come to Bansko anymore because it's extremely expensive: 85-100 euros a full dinner for 2 people, 50 euros/pers. gondola, unimaginable prices for accommodation (up to 2200 euros for 5 nights). I am sure that the rates are the same in Austria, Germany or France, and the services are clearly superior. Video is just video...
O Doamne, nu mai veniti in Bansko pentru ca este extrem de scump: 85-100 euro o cina completa pentru 2 persoane, 50 euro /pers. gondola, preturi inimaginabile la cazare (pana la 2200 euro pentru 5 nopti). Sunt sigur ca tarifele se gasesc la fel si in Austria, Germania ori Franta, iar serviciile sunt net superioare. Video este doar video ...
Definitely not true lol, I've just booked a 2 bedroom apartment for 7 days for around $800, and looking at the reviews and online prices of the local restaurants it's more like $20 per person if even that..
Yup. 45 euro for a 2 hour waiting time on the gondola and busy slopes... The French Alps give you the same price and you can't cover half of the slopes for a week.
@@DTishinov Man if you don't know what are you talking about please just shut up. I like bansko I really like it, but the price is bullshit, I'm Italian, I went to the Alps, go to Marmolada or near there you have thousand of km of slopes in 1 week you can barely cover it all, and there is more people just during the weekend, like normally everywhere even in bansko.
I pay 90$ in Canada and we get garbage food here . We get Just Hot Dogs and Crappy Burgers here in Ontario skiing . Been there and Bansko'' is amazing !
Having been there this year, the word is propaganda and its hard to get honest information. I went in February and the queues are biblical. Whether it's the two hour queue snaking round the car park from the resort in the morning, the traffic jam going up the mountain road in the morning, or the hundreds of people in the queue for the drag lift. Much of bansko is an unfinished building site with many building blocks from the 2008 financial crisis. So lots of unfinished roads, paths etc. At night it was hard to breath with all the locals burning wood to keep warm. The accommodation was well priced that said as was ski kit hire though food prices were high.
Really, I totally disagree with that. Went running there last year I thought they were the most lovely people I’d come across whilst travelling. Wonder if they bring outsiders in for the season
Yeah right. The name comes from the Turkish "raki" like so many other words in the Balkans. Rakija is not specifically serbian. What is specifically serbian however is all the lies they like to tell.
Excellent review! Also, the use of a real narrator again hasn’t gone unnoticed so well done!
Perfect video! As a Bulgarian who worked and lived in Bansko, I totally agree with the observations.
Hey man, is there no limit -cash Texas hold'em poker- tables in the casino?
I went there and had the best ski instructor after 4 days I could confidently do a red run
What was the name of the instructor?

What time of year did you go?
Excellent review! Thank you
Best video to represent Bansko
יופי של סקירה ויופי של פרויקט !
בהצלחה לכם בהמשך !
best nightlife from all European resort
only that is good. i cant comprehend how how people coming here to ski 3 4 mogul runs per day😐 probably for cheap alcohol
And the women are not Woke Feminists ! They are nice !
@@sheezabrat jesus is it that bad?

@@neemabeglou925 Come and make your own impressions. In fact the track are crowded... Only good thing is the night life - cheap and wild :)

I agree, the weather do gets crazy. in Bansko, only today, the resort got its real snow. only 1 run was open until today

Great video, have wanted you to do a review on 'Bansko' for ages. Really enjoyed it
Great video with lots of great information. Also, I did check out your website. Glad I did! Really nice.
I have been to Bansko and I can tell you this isn't close to the truth.
@@Kti432 interesting to hear you say that. I’ve obviously never been, so I wouldn’t know. I have watched other reviews of places I have skied, and found them to be quite accurate. Would like to hear your thoughts. Cheers.
@@MarkHSPR waiting times at the bottom gondola can be much longer than an hour and slopes the worst i have ever seen. full of moguls.
Nice, but one cons: in 2023 prices grew up, so this review doesn't quite match. But even with that, I'll be there soon :)
best place love it

th-cam.com/video/EHNoQbufmwA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aWxhcaLTXaRwUdeP
biggest problem is gondola, waiting time 1-2 hours in the morning
Great video, Im coming for new year i was just wondering if anyone knew any good places for new years eve to book for food and drinks with live music and a party, apart from euphoria as my girlfriend doesnt like the menu. Thanks
Try Ginger
I must go to bansko
Thanks for review. Please make Jasna review!!!
If ever in Bansko... come to Amigo Pub !!
Tip for the gondola, come 30min before opening, you will wait about 15min in the line and 20 more min for the ride.
It's not that true - there is waiting line 1 hr before opening if there are holidays...
Or go somewhere else. There are plenty of wonderful skiresorts with very little or no queue issues at all.
Please, do a Kronplatz (Italy) rewiew.☺
Great video👍
Do you have a cross country ski track in Bansko? How long is the cross country ski season in Bansko?
Great review. $944 for the season pass. 😊
thanks for the compliment and for the tip
i just went there first time last month from UK they had no snow was such a shame we only got one lift open missed out hugely unfortunately.
What month did you go if you dont mind me asking?
Kopaonik?
Can you rate La Thuile or Lake Louise??? Amazing video just like the others
Do Borovets in 🇧🇬
Heads up, you said €230 for a lift pass but display €130. So not very clear.
he said " 130€"
Six days skipass for adults will cost you 230 euros ( u can see in text below video or check it yourself somewhere else)
@Ski Resorts TV he definitely says 230 euro
Great review! Can you review Livigno in Italy?

Please come to Åre, Sweden!
is it 130 or 230 of the ski pass
Thanks...
You're welcome!
Is it good in May?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
it is closed on the 1st week on April.
Bulgaria is neighbours with Greece what do you think can it be good to ski when Sea resorts opens ?
finally!
Sounds like Bansko could do with a 2nd gondola!!!
Why are you lying to people, the price for 6 days is 260 euro not 130 euro
It,s à bluff....and commerce !
U can go ski meribel one of the best ski resorts in the world in the French alps with 10 times the ski area for an extra 40 euros
Is it snow now in bansko? I will go there on 30th
There is no snow
45 euro this year for a day???? This is crazy for this place
What do you mean ? That's not bad at all . Its cheap actually .
@@ivanronin8209 man wtf are you talking about? In which planet are you leaving? Do you know the place of the other resort?

Casino, strippers, alcohol… unexpected review of ski resort
Sin city
Give them entertainment and they will enjoy it .
well groomed slopes 😆 is that a joke
all runs turn to moguls in 1 hour max
It's the ultimate mogul destination.
You only forgot to mention how unfriendly and/or rude the staff can be.
u are right they are all so fucking rude.
Really, I totally disagree with that. Went running there last year I thought they were the most lovely people I’d come across whilst travelling. Wonder if they bring outsiders in for the season
The only one rude here is you .
is 280e per 6 days in 2024
Glad you loved Solden! thanks for the compliment on the review. It take a lot of time and effort to make them.
@@SkiResortsVideo wrong reply mate
Decent resort for three days maximum for a cheap thrill. The town is a bit seedy though and not a nice alpine feel which is disappointing
A lot of drug dealers?
@@sfullernj What you are looking for from Western Europe, this is available !!!
Bad if you think you are in the Alps😅😅
к0р за ЦеКо
Lift queues? No thank you
Shut up
Bansko and Panporovo '' are the Best for Ski !! And the Food is so Much better then in Switzerland !! Swiss Food is crap ! Bulgaria rules !
Thank you my friend .
It's not a "Rejkija" its a "Rakija" and it's not a local, it's a Serbian drink :D
Ракията е толкова ваша, колкото и наша. Все едно да кажеш, че супа (чорба) борщ и водка са руски, а не полски или украински.
🤣😂🤣
Its a Bulgarian Drink . Lets have a Balkan War again over this stupid thing now . What's Slivovetz then geniuse ?? Make up your Minds ?
Oh my God! Everything on this earth is Serbian, isn't it Branislavu? How selfish...
Yeah right. The name comes from the Turkish "raki" like so many other words in the Balkans. Rakija is not specifically serbian. What is specifically serbian however is all the lies they like to tell.
