While 90% of their tourists come from other European countries, in recent years there have been growing numbers of visitors using their company areas of the world too.
Typically the most popular destinations include the capital, Athens, and the islands, especially Crete, Rhodes and Corfu. Some areas are extremely tourist orientated, but people seeking a quieter experience can still find places free of mass tourism.
