September is the new August for tourism

1 min read

As the flow of holidaymakers continues unabated to Greece, September, the first month of autumn, is looking more dynamic than ever before.

From Tovima, with August about to hand over the baton of Greek hospitality to September, everyone wants to see this year’s tourist season extended into autumn. In this, the Greek tourist sector has found an ally in a new trend whereby Europeans and travelers from other continents are choosing to spend their holidays in Greece outside high season.

The impact of climate change, the high price of airline tickets and tourist services, and phenomena associated with overtourism began to affect travel habits last year, with the months before and after full summer attracting tourists in unprecedented numbers. Now, more and more travelers seem to be opting to visit the country in April-June and again in September-November.

The major tour operators are taking this change in preferences into account and adjusting the packages they offer to meet the new demand.
