Bulgaria offers good value car hire and a lot of variety in a small area. From Sofia you can reach Rila Monastery, Plovdiv's old town and the ski resorts of Bansko and Borovets; from Varna and Burgas, the whole Black Sea coast.
Low daily prices sometimes come with high deposits. When comparing, look at the excess and the deposit that will be blocked on your credit card, not only the rental price.
