Might sound a bit odd, but how do you say 'polichrono'??

Try poly (as in parrot) crow, ,no, in my best black country accent. Bye the way Wolves are now Premier League.

try poli- as in police and then chrono- as in chronology.

The tone is on i in the word polichrono, not in the o's,

But generally-speaking Greeks are not very fussy about pronounciations. they ll understand you however you try and pronouce the word

Hi
Off to Polychrono mid July with my 15 yr old daughter...can anyone let me know airport trnsfer time by coach to resort...hate the thought of being on a bus for hours!Also is car hire reasonabbly priced....or is public transport easier?
Thanks Loll

Sakis at Kriopigi cars has great reasonably priced cars and he will meet you at the airport with one, or bring you back to Kriopigi (a few miles before you get to Pefkochori).

The drive is easy, just beware Greek drivers who under and over take ! The drive takes about one hour. The coach I have heard takes about 2-21/2 depending where it stops.

There are also taxis, I think about 80 euros one way.

A car would be good because the cost is not bad and you can then see all over Kassandra rather than just the area you stay in, it is very diverse on Kassandra and there are some really nice old Greek villages and some non tourist villages as well as the more touristy ones.

Have a great time.

Kind regards Loll

we are going to the diana appartments in pefkohori on 20 th july can any one please give us some tips also can you get to athens from there thanks pam

hi,i live in pefkohori so any questions u need answering and i can answer pls ask.the diana hotel is clean and friendly.situated in the center of the town but not noisey at all.obviously i havent stayed there but all the guests often go back year after year.also this year i have heard that he has installed a new system so that u can now flush ur toilet paper down the toilet(haha a big privilage here).im sure you'll have a good time..

We have know Billy the owner for many years. Although we have not stayed there, as we rent long term for six months or so, we did look round his newly furbished rooms last year and they were fine. He is very friendly and we often go there for a drink and to see his mum and dad. The beach is a couple of mins walk and the hotel is on a quiet street away from the main road. I think you will be very happy.
