If you have already put up with the hours of waiting at the border Greecethere’s an option that could seriously change your travel plans this summer.
More and more travelers heading to the Aegean choose the route through Bulgaria – and, as they say, the difference is felt already at the first (and only) crossing.
What makes this option particularly attractive is the speed of the pass. At border crossings, the wait often lasts only ten to fifteen minutes, without the nervousness and endless queues that have been a “normal” part of vacationing for years.
An additional plus is the fact that Bulgaria and Greece are in the Schengen zone, so there are no classic controls and detentions at their mutual border. In practice, this means – you drive without stopping, without taking out documents and without the usual stress that accompanies summer migrations to the sea.
The road through Bulgaria has also been improved to a great extent. The sections are newer, the asphalt is of good quality, and the driving is more peaceful than on some traditional routes through the region. Instead of a grueling stop and go scenario, the driving here is continuous, which makes the journey much more pleasant, especially if you are traveling at night or with children.
For many drivers, this route becomes a kind of discovery – not only because of the time savings, but also because of the feeling that the road to the sea is finally a less stressful part of the vacation, and not its most strenuous segment.
If you are looking for an alternative that saves nerves and time this summer, the route through Bulgaria to Greece seems more and more like an unquestionable choice.
