Union Ivkoni Nova Zagora Sofia recent customer reviews

Great driver. On time for connecting with flight. Actual bus was old and tatty with plastic on sides of most aisle seats missing and revealing rough edged screws. I’m aware of this as I caught my leggings on my seat screws as I swung my legs around to let someone out. This would not deter me from selecting this company as service is good but maybe be aware of this issue.
