Greece’s participation at the World Trade Market in Brazil helped create new bridges for tourism

The National Tourism Organization attended the largest tourism exhibition of Latin America in the hopes of tapping in on new tourist markets, according to an Economy, Infrastructure, Shipping and Tourism ministry’ announcement.

GNTO Secretary General Panos Livadas represented Greece at the World Trade Market (WTM)-Sao Paolo in Brazil. Livadas held a series of meetings with major tour operators that specialize mainly in luxury tourism and religious tourism, such as CVC, Queensberry, Designer Tours, and Flot.

The Greek delegation also met with representatives of tour operators, agencies and journalists and travel bloggers.

Tourist agents are positive concerning the development of the Latin American market as Brazilians in Greece almost doubled in 2014 compared to 2013, with positive signs for more growth in 2015.
