To Bulgaria on your own car
We want to go from Zaporozhye (Ukraine) to Albena (Bulgaria) in the summer not on a tour, but on our own car. Who knows - is it possible to pay for food / accommodation on the spot, at the hotel. How much cheaper is it? Where can you park your car? How about crossing borders? Does anyone have a similar personal experience?

Oh, I'm afraid it won't be easier... Visas to 2 countries - Romania and Bulgaria, to pay for travel... I don't even know.
Usually places in hotels can be found, but it is unrealistic to find at the price at which they charge travel agencies. They buy rooms in bulk, they have discounts...
I think it will be cheaper to fly by plane and take everything on tour. My wife and I tried this way and that, there was a lot of fuss with visas, it didn’t work out cheaper.
This is my opinion ... maybe there will be others ??

You know, Bulgaria is after all Europe, after all, and you will have to tinker with visas on your own trip (((And as for hotel rooms, if there are free places, no problem: rooms and food to choose from (not much, but cheaper than from an agency.) And parking... depending on which hotel the price depends on it. Try it, you might like it))) Have a nice stay!

If you have a Bulgarian visa, you don’t need a Romanian visa from November 08, travel everywhere without problems along the route (Reni, Galati, Constanta, Dobrich, Gen. Toshevo, Albena)
You will find housing 50% cheaper than in the agency, but keep in mind that Albena is expensive. You can stay in Kranevo (along the coast 1.5 km from Albena). The beach is the same, the prices are lower. Entrance to Albena is paid, parking for 1 hour 1€, for a day-3-4€. even on the beach.
There will be questions, write, I will answer. (I live in Bulgaria 3-6 months a year, I drive from Kyiv in my car)

The cost of living on a tour will be cheaper than taking on the spot.
The cost of living in Albena hotels can be directly specified at:

Thanks for the recommendation. I realized that it was better to go to Kranevo. We will be traveling 8 people (4 adults and 4 children). A number of other questions arise from this:
1. How difficult is it to get a visa to Bulgaria? Its cost.
2. Customs clearance - how fast, what problems?
3. Where is it better to stay: in a hotel (with meals), or privately, and eat in restaurants? If in a hotel, which one is better?
4. Where is the best place to leave a car in Kranevo? How much is it?
5. Where can I go from Kranevo - the most interesting places, excursions? What is the best way to travel - by car or with a group bus?
Thanks in advance for the replies!

We are going to go by car too. A visa can be issued without a tour for about 50 euros / person. There are no problems with a visa - it takes about a week to process and from the documents you need to have a Ukrainian passport, photo and TIN. No income statement required. The visa is opened for 2 months with 2 entries. On the spot, you can choose a hotel or the private sector (they are usually cheaper, about 10-15 euros per day without meals). And I think it is better to book hotels in advance, there are not always free places. You can park your car in the parking lot of a hotel or a private cottage. It is obligatory to issue a green card for a car for about 180 hryvnia for 15 days and personal insurance. The car must not be on credit. A visa to Romania for tourists who travel to Bulgaria is not needed. It will be much cheaper than taking a tour. Especially if there are four of us, then gasoline will come out cheaper, about 200 euros for four. We went to the private sector, and ate there, quite inexpensively and well. We went to Sofia and Istanbul.

Did you forget about health insurance? You won't get a visa without it...

And if the car can be driven on a general power of attorney or do you need to take a temporary technical ticket?
