Articles and Literature

In addition to providing information on travel to Kastellorizo we will post articles that appear from time to time in the mainstream media. A recent example is "The world's best have a lot to learn, by George" which appeared in The Age - Sports section on Saturday 9th May 2009. The journalist was Greg Baum who we contacted to obtain his permission to make the artcicle available to our website visitors.

The situation is one that occurs regularly in life. Greg advised as follows "My partner is also a journalist, met a Kazzie on a Mediterranean cruise a few years ago and offered the use of her house. We didn't realise until be got there what a privilege it was. We do now".

Have a read of the article which you will notice makes strong reference to George Karagiannis of Daily Cruises at the bottom of this page.
