Should you rent a car in Bulgaria

Many areas of Bulgaria remain relatively untouched and unvisited by tourists, probably because public transport does not service these regions. With that in mind if you hire a car in Bulgaria you will have the opportunity to explore some of these areas and see much more that the country has to offer.

Travel at your own pace and enjoy the independence that car rental affords, available at refreshingly low prices.
