You can go there by catching a taxi or tram #7. There is also a laser arena in the Paradise centre shopping mall. It is located on the second floor. You can go to the mall by metro (get off at Vitosha station). The price for one player is about 5 leva. Invite your friends and have fun!

A boat ride at Ariana or Pancharevo lake

In spring, summer and autumn, you can try a boat ride at Ariana lake (in Borisova garden, next to Eagles bridge and Vasil Levski stadium) or at Pancharevo lake (catch the bus #1 or bus #3). It costs about 10 leva per person and it is a great thing to do when the weather is nice or you want to invite someone on a romantic date in Sofia! In winter, the Ariana lake gets "frozen" and you can try ice skating (the fee is again about 10 leva per person)!

The flying is being carried out depending on the weather conditions in the regions of Sofia, Asenovgrad, Vratsa, Zlatitsa, Sopot and Kiustendil.
