Russian tourists have found a genius way to get around Sochi for free with a personal driver.
They are mass-booking showings for houses and apartments near the beach, so real estate agents drive them to the area. Then the tourists simply walk away and go sunbathe, realtors complain.
Over a week, tourists can save more than 10,000 rubles — about $134 — on taxis this way. The scheme has been around for a second year, but this summer it has become widespread.
