Greece among top choices for American travelers

Ranked 11th

Greece is ranked 11th in the preferences of American travelers as a tourist destination, according to online platform “TripHobo”. The data was collected based on the choices of 700,000 users and revealed that American holidaymakers picked Greece as one of their most popular choices over the last six months.
