 EuropeWord EuropeWord Post Count: 57 Msg: #1 335 days ago, December 23rd 2008 | Does anyone know how the roads in Bulgaria are? Are they high-quality, or bad-quality? Better said, is renting a car in Bulgaria a good idea to travel? I heard something like it has bad roads. | Any info would be appreciated.

NB... people dont look when trurning ontomain roads... they expect you to move... and approach 4 way junctions with extreem caution! some ppl just fly through em! have ya whitts about ya n all will be gravey!

When I lived in Belgrade, I took my own car between Bucharest to Sofia then looped back to Belgrade. No problems, some roads are a bit dodgy with potholes etc and the locals drive maniacally, but with confidence and just taking it easy, not allowing yourself to get too stressed, it is fine and do-able. Lots of filling stations, so petrol isn't really a problem. | EuropeWord EuropeWord Post Count: 57 Msg: #4 272 days ago, February 24th 2009 | Haha, that's true, I finally got there with my personal car. Bad drivers, bad roads. Everyone should pay attention there. | Thank you for responses, EuropeWord Number of Users: 3 | Number of Posts: 4 | ||||||||||||
