 Travel
agencies Goofers....
Very good (and unintended)
advertisement for Kokkari!!
(the most wonderful place on Samos!)
2 Danish travel agencies
(Spies & Skibby Rejser) have 'only' Pythagorion on their Samos
program, but both of them use
pictures from Kokkari in their marketing of Pythagorion.
It is in their catalogues and
on their websites as well. I wonder if it is a coincident, that they
also are using the same
pictures!! I agree with them - Kokkari is wonderful !
(Skibby: found & mailed to
"Skibby" 27 Oct. 2005 - same pictures in use 11 Jan. 2006 ! )
---------------------------------
(Spies: found 11.January 2006
& mailed to Spies - pictures on web changed 13 Jan. !)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One more: ving.no does it
also !!
(and they do it well)
Like the 2 Danish agencies
Ving 'only' have Pythagorion on their program, but look at the
top of their Pythagorion page
- where are the pictures from ?? Yes - from KOKKARI !
Both pictures shows the harbour
promenade in Kokkari.
The text: 'Pythagorion-
"tourist capital" with a smell of jasmine
A beautiful pearl with many
possibilities for own trips and experiences.
Here stays Ving's
most satisfied Greece-guests.'
( Where are they staying ? In Kokkari or Pythagorion??? )
Ving's catalogue isn't better than
the Danish agencies catalogues. A picture from the
western beach in Kokkari is called 'The
beach in Pythagorion'
(page 166), and from
hotel Damo in Pythagorion it should be possible to
look all the way to the harbour
promenade in Kokkari
(page 168).
(found 11.January 2006 &
mailed to Ving - pictures on web changed 13 Jan. !)
One of the new pictures is a
very beautiful sunset picture with a little boat
seen from the harbour in ... Kokkari !
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What about ving.se ?
They are using another picture - from Kokkari !!
(The picture in the middle is from the harbour in Kokkari.)
(found 12.January 2006 &
mailed to Ving )
GOOF AGAIN!!
Changes made - Now Ving is using a
big picture from KOKKARI !!
( found 2. February 2006 )
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ving.no & Ving.se
now co-operates in making the same errors !!
Both advertising for
Pythagorion with these pictures:
From the harbour in kokkari & Gangou Beach
by Samos town.
Why are they using pictures from the NORTH-side of Samos
when their
destination is the SOUTH-side ?? Hopefully they send
their guests to the
right island ! Now we wait
to see the next GOOF !
( found 2. Marts 2006 )
6. Marts 2006: Ving.no are now OK. (Very quick change !!)
Ving.se still uses wrong pictures!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Falk Lauritsen Rejser has
also joined the 'club'...
Falk Lauritsen Rejser has
travels to Samos town and Pythagorion.
On their web (catalogue) they tell about those two places, BUT
3 out of 6 pictures are from the KOKKARI area !
Pictures from Falk-Lauritsens catalogue:
Kokkari 'east-beach'
View from Kokkari harbour Lemonakia beach
(north coast).
(found 16.January 2006 &
mailed to Falk Lauritsen Rejser.)
(Reply: They were busy, and
had not time to answer mails.
Suggested to contact them by
phone - will NOT be done ! )
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is a little strange, that
all these
agencies who obviously
find Kokkari very attractive
don't sell travels to that place.

If you have some 'funny Samos stuff' (story or
pictures) you want to
share with others, then send us a mail, and we will put
it on this page.
