September is the new August for tourism

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.
