The best time to go is from December 15 to May 15, if you plan on skiing. There are luxury hotels and luxury apartments in the construction stage, meanwhile there are about forty family hotels. The closest airport is Sofia Airport, 97 km from Bansko. Rental cars, shuttles, taxis and vans are available for the trip to Bansko. The Gondola ride from town to the slopes takes about twenty-five minutes.

Live folk music often accompanies the local cuisine in the taverns, cafes and restaurants. There are discos and clubs for nighttime entertainment. The town has many cultural and historic monuments, souvenir shops, and artists and silversmiths to watch as they create their beautiful pieces of art, jewelry and more. Tourists can visit the remains of the ancient fortress the lakes, waterfalls and caves in the National Park Pirin and the mineral springs at Bayoni-dupki-Djindjiritsa. Take short trip to the Rila Monastery and the city of Sofia, the home of Borovets ski slopes.
