Poštovani, Izlet, tj. krstarenje brodićem za odrasle staje 27 evra, za decu od 6 do 12 god. 15, a deca mlađa od šest godina se voze gratis. Rentiranje skutera je oko 15 evra, dok je cena za bicikl oko 10. Autobusi saobraćaju nekoliko puta u toku dana, a cena karte zavisi od toga gde idete (npr. Aliki 2,90), o rasporedu i cenama se možete informisati po dolasku detaljnije. Manastir se nalazi na 15 km istočno od Potosa, pratite magistralni put i uočićete manastir sa desne strane. Svakako odvojite dan za Kavalu, sigurno ćete uživati u primorskom gradiću koji ima bogatu istoriju. Pozdrav!

Poštovana, Restoran Kleoniki (Kod Brke) nalazi se u Teologosu, ali drago nam je da ste se uživali u poseti Kazavitiju. Ukoliko budete u mogućnosti posetite i Teologos, sigurno će Vam se dopasti mesto. Poydrav!
