The business sector is satisfied with the performance of Bulgaria in February at the spring tourist exchange in Bucharest. Interest in vacationing on the Bulgarian coast is very high, says Ion Bondar - manager of a hotel complex on the Northern Black Sea coast. He says that in the complex that he represents, Romanians are already more than 65% of the guests. 

"The market is reorienting towards them, because they are important tourists from a very close and accessible distance. From Bucharest or Constanta, the Black Sea is literally 2 to 4 hours away by car. We are becoming more and more in demand among preferred nearby destinations," says Bondar.

Until February 26, Bulgaria will also present itself at a tourist exchange in Denmark, where interest in the country is growing. In 2023, about 40,000 tourists from Denmark visited the country, the Ministry of Tourism announced.
