Reuters published a video report about Greek tourism entitled “Greece Returns as Tourist Hotspot” highlighting the recovery of Greek tourism after six consecutive years of recession.

Reuters report mentions that “Historic landmarks and glorious sunshine have long made it a favorite holiday destination. That is, until Greece’s crippling debt, worries about social unrest and its possible exit from the euro zone, kept holiday makers away. Now as the country emerges from the crisis, visitors numbers are set to soar”.

Also, the report includes statements by the president of the Association of Greek Tourism Enterprises (SETE), Andreas Andreadis.

“Greece is in fashion again, that is good news. I hear from everywhere we will go to Greece this year,” Mr. Andreadis said adding that Greek economy shows an increase again by 0.6%.

The video also features two tourists in Greece who comment on the services provided in Greece and refer to hotels of “decent value “ and restaurants of “excellent value.” Regarding the economic crisis, the tourists said that “this is nothing to do with the people.”
