Fur coat of my dreams or waiting for winter for the first time
I decided to go on a shopping tour, I read a lot of various information on the Internet, both good and bad. And since I needed a good, real Greek fur coat, I decided to experience such a trip for myself. More than satisfied with the result!
The plane flew to Thessaloniki, at the airport, at the exit we were met by employees of the travel agency Mouzenidis. When we sat down on the buses, and there were several of them, and everyone went for fur coats, along with us. After the airport we were taken on a tour of Thessaloniki. I did not know about this, and given that I flew in for only three days, I considered this a bonus. The city is very beautiful and old. The tour was conducted by the guide Vasilis, who is a virtuoso in Russian, an interesting storyteller, listening to him is a pleasure.
And then we went to Kastoria. Before that, of course, we were fed on the plane, but we still felt hungry, and we stopped at a large cafe, and had lunch there. It's time to sleep, but they began to tell us about fur coats, how to choose, how to check for quality, how to buy more profitable, etc. I was preparing for the trip, I read a lot about fur coats, but what I heard could only be reported by professionals who directly deal with fur coats every day.
Upon arrival in Kastoria, we checked into a hotel, had dinner in the evening and went to rest. I won’t write about the hotel, my review of the trip for a fur coat, I need to write a separate one about the hotel.
In the morning, after breakfast, we were picked up from the hotel and on our bus we went to the exhibition center Edika. There are 3 floors, many small shops, a large selection, everything is different everywhere, and then the knowledge from the escorts came in handy for me (what we were told on the bus when we wanted to sleep so much). We were told that while we are choosing fur coats at the exhibition, and if someone does not find something for themselves there, then the bus will go to the factories at 13.00. I wanted to see the assortment at the factories, so I went after lunch. About half of our group was on the bus. In factories, it seemed to me, the choice was more interesting, but the most pleasant thing is that in factories they were more willing to give up the price. The choice is basically great everywhere. I was lucky, I wanted a knee-length light mink fur coat and immediately found it, sat down on me like a glove! ! By the way, they made a discount, so I was doubly satisfied. In the evening we were taken to a large tavern, there was a Greek evening, we had dinner, and the performance began. First there was a quiz, we were asked questions about Greece to play a fur coat! No one really believed that it was possible to win it, but it was a big surprise for everyone when a woman from St. Petersburg won out of the four finalists. We were in shock, is it possible. We were told that someone always wins fur coats, at least once a month. Then there were Greek dancers, they learned how to dance sirtaki, in general, we danced enough.
And in the morning, no matter how sorry, it was necessary to go to the airport. On the way to the airport, we were also told how to care for fur coats, and that there is a guarantee for fur coats, you can clean them for free where you bought them. This is great, because my fur coat is almost white, and I am very afraid to give it to our dry cleaners. At the airport, our guides helped us quickly check in for the flight, so there was still time for duty free.
I really liked the trip, despite the fact that it was short in time, everything turned out very well organized. There were women in our group who were afraid that there would not be enough time, but they bought everything, and some even several fur coats, especially since there was a decent discount on the second product right away.
I'm probably the first time in my life looking forward to winter to show off in my wonderful fur coat! ! There are no failures in the organization, it is clear that the mechanism has already been worked out. Everything is super, thank you for a wonderful trip, I will advise everyone I know! !
