“We want to show American travel agents what Greece has to offer, what has changed in the country and how we can all benefit from it,” the president of the Hellenic American Chamber of Tourism (HACT), George Trivizas, told Greek tourism professionals and American travel agents at an event held on 4 February in Athens.

For one week, hosted travel agents from the United States will attend workshops and presentations in Athens and gain hands-on experience through hotel/venue inspections, cultural visits and B2B meetings with Greek travel agents, tour operators and hoteliers.

The event is organized by HACT and aims to promote Greece – with a special emphasis on Athens – and the variety of the country’s offered services, all year round activities and alternative tourism options.
