The beauties of Greece were lauded by the US ambassador to Athens Geoffrey Pyatt during his speech at the American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA) Destination EXPO 2018 opening ceremony held on Sunday at the Herod Atticus Odeon.
Mr. Pyatt stressed that American tourists are particularly interested in traveling to Greece with a focus on culture and that there are still many destinations in the country, beyond Mykonos and Santorini, that remain unknown to them, but are of great tourist interest.
He pointed out that the most fascinating feature of Greece is the combination of its natural landscapes, people, gastronomy and its culture and that it is also one of the safest destinations in the world.
Our goal, he said, is to increase investment and tourism from the United States as relations between Greece and the US are at their best. In addition, he said, the United States will be the Honored Country in Thessaloniki International Fair 2018
