HOW CAN ONE GET FROM TESALONIKI TO KASTORIA?

My great grandfather was born in Kastoria, and although he emigrated with his family to the U.S. in the early 1900s, I would like to visit this town as part of a trip to Greece this spring. I know that the Sephardic Jewish community in Kastoria was wiped out in the Holocaust, but does anyone know if there are any traces of their history still there? Cemetery, museum, neighborhood, etc? Thanks for your help.

Please advise on long distance bus departure times from Kastoria to Athens during July August. Have found the Athens to Kastoria times on various sites but no mention of the reverse. Please help!

Hi!

I've read that there are local buses from Florina to Kastoria and back
but could find neither the schedule nor the frequence. Does anyone knows
the schedule?

many thanks,
Pavel.

Well, finally I'm going to Kastoria - after all those years;-) Just one detail that bugs me - hotel. I couldn't find any information online, that's why my question is to people who've been to this beautiful place - where did you stay? If I just show up some time Saturday noon, could I find a room at a hotel/guesthouse without a reservation.
Thanks a lot in advance.

How much should I expect to pay for a fur in Kastoria? Where arethe best placesto buy and how can I find about the quality of that fur? Thank you!
