We are a family with 2 kids (this year 11 and 8). This is our third year in series in Bansko and third year with TOTEM and their wonderful instructor Sasha, who taught our kids ski from 0 to black routes. Highly recommended.

Visited Bansko in January with my family, 6 adults renting mixture of top quality equipment and taking full advantage of the amazing services for ski/snowboard tuning and personal boot adjustments. The kindness and focus, and shop dance parties with Mitko, Tanya and Anna were a highlight of our holiday. Hope to see you guys again soon.

We took equipment and instructors from Totem and there are not enough words to explain how much I recommend them!!! The best equipment, they helped us fit everything and didn’t leave us until it was perfect. We took two lessons - with Kamen for ski and with Rami for snowboard. They were both super professional, patience. Do yourself a favour and use their equipment rental and instructors!!!

Nik at Totem really helped us a LOT! after a ski instructor we hired backed out on us at the 3 days before we were supposed to arrive to Bansko, nearly the last minute for us, we reached out to Nik about arranging a ski instructor for us. Nik was GREAT. not only did he arrange everything we needed (instructor, equipment, etc), but he got us a GREAT instructor. @Konstantin Inkyov, who in 3 days, taught my grandson to ski really well! i had a great learning experience as well, improving my skiing and learning to get rid of some of my bad habits. Kudos to Konstantin, and best wishes on his competitive journey! he's just great. but he wasn't the only one who was great. everyone at Totem was wonderful, treating us really well, helping us, and making our ski trip just so successful, memorable, and fun! Nik, thanks again for making this magical! you and everyone else at Totem! HIGHLY RECOMMEND you work with them to experience the same magic!

The location is perfect—super convenient and close to the gondola, making rentals and returns effortless. I also booked ski instructor through Totem Ski Services for my kids.
