hi all has anyone been to polichrono yet this yaear who can tell me how many euros u was getting 2 the pound thanks.

At the moment the exchange rate is around 1.22 - 1.24. If you use a nationwide UK card it is 1.25 - 1.26. We have been here since March and the rate started at 1.308 and has gone down ever since! It goes up slightly bit I wouldn t bet on getting more than 1.25 this year.

thanks jane whats the prices like in polichrono i.e food, beer ha ha is it cheap exspensive?.

Don't know Polichrono prices as we live other side. But we visit Hanioti, Kriopigi, Nea Skioni and Siviris a lot. Beers are on average 2.50, frappe 2.50 - 3.00 (1.70 on main road in Pefkochori), sea views cost more !

Giros 2.20 - 2.50, tom and cuc salad 2.50 - 3.50. Bread 60-90 cents depending on what. Fruit and veg at market still good value. Eating out costs more now, try to stick to Greek places rather than tourist places for best value.

Prices have gone up. Exchange rate, well last night we were shocked when a hotel in Pefkochori told us that he gives his customers 1.17 ! So maybe get a Nationwide card before you come, you get the business rates then and no charge for using the card. We constantly get 1.24+ which we thought was bad enough.
