Greece 3rd most popular destination for American travellers in 2020, survey finds

Italy holds top spot in their choices

Newsroom December 17 10:26

Greece is the third most popular destination for Americans in 2020, according to a survey conducted by members of the US Tour Operators Association, USTO.

Italy will be the top choice for American travellers in 2020, followed by France, while Spain, Greece and the United Kingdom tied in the third, followed by Ireland and Japan in fourth, and Germany and South Africa in fifth place.

Europe has a very strong presence in the US market for yet another year, with demand growing due to its product variety and increased demand, said USTOA President and CEO Terry Dale.

Arts and culture were cited as the top sales category in 2019, followed by wildlife observation and nature trips.
