Chances are if you are comming from abroad that you will be arriving at the airport. Luckily, there are plenty of taxi’s there. Sofia Airport works with “OK” taxi, authorized cars are lining up at the official Taxi area at each terminal. If you decide another brand from the airport they may overcharge you.
You can just give the address of the flat to the taxi driver and he will take you there. Prices will vary depending on the traffic and time of day but you can expect to pay around BGN15.Do not try to negotiate the fare with the taxi driver, just ask them to turn the meter on.
There is a detailed guide to Taxi’s in the Sofia Travel Section which you can read if interested. Keep in mind that most taxis won’t have a card payment option.

To keep our costs down and pass those savings on to you :) we kindly ask that you switch off lights and heating when it’s not in use or leaving the house. Mother Nature thanks you too!

General Advice
Water
The water in sofia is drinkable. You can drink straight from the tap. However, we recommend taking 50% of your daily allowance through bottled water.
Money
Exchange money at banks or exchange bureaus. Make sure you read all the small print before exchanging. Always compare the given exchange rate with the current rates online to be sure. Exchange rate of EUR and BGN is fixed at 1.95 BGN for 1 EUR so if you see that the exchange bureau is selling you Bulgarian Leva for less, avoid it!
ATMs
Use ATMs attached to banks. Otherwise use your best judgement and don’t take money out from some shady street corners.
Pickpocketing
It is not often but it happens. Carry your belongings in an inside pocket if possible and be careful when browsing crowded places. Do not leave purses, phones, cameras or wallets on the table while dining at sidewalk restaurants and cafes.
Car
Do not leave any valuables inside a parked car. For more on parking take a look at the Transportation section.
Walking
Watch your step! The pavements in Sofia are paved with gold but are not always in the best condition.
