As a “gateway” to get to know the islands of the North and East Aegean he recommends Samo the travel platform flyedelweiss.com.

The top of the list of “unconventional” destinations without hypertourism is the island of Pythagoras, followed by Fourni, Thymaina, Ikaria, Chios and Psara. According to the international organization trusted by hundreds of thousands of Swiss travelers every month, “Samos is considered the greenest island in Greece. It is dotted with many springs and beautiful water oases.

Samos is a paradise for nature lovers and those who dream of exotic beaches. Whether it is a tour of villages, historical monuments, mountainous landscapes and wineries or a boat trip in beautiful bays, Samos creates indelible memories while one needs to stay more than a week to explore the whole island.

It is noted that the Municipalities of Eastern and Western Samos have begun a systematic effort to contact international media, EOT Offices and tourist agencies in order to highlight known and unknown aspects of the destination in markets such as Greece, Scandinavia, Italy, German-speaking countries and elsewhere, with an emphasis on thematic forms of tourism.

“We enrich our narrative with unique experiential experiences. The changing natural landscapes, the gastronomy, the activities and the inseparable connection with antiquity form a reality that the modern tourist seeks. Our aim is not only to open new markets but also to inspire travelers to visit us again and again due to the diversity of experiences and emotions that the destination creates”, added the Vice Mayor of West Samos Tourism Vangelis Marnezos.

“Samos has the “advantage” to differentiate itself on the international and domestic tourist “map”. A multidimensional place that offers a range of alternative activities and journeys in nature, history and the world of flavors. We are promoting this exact combination in many markets abroad and in Greece knowing a warm response” said the Mayor of Eastern Samos, Paris Papageorgiou.
