Philoxenia 2001 greeting.

It is evident to all that this year’s Philoxenia comes at a very crucial moment for Greek tourism. Our confederation believes that now is the time for all those who are involved in the tourism sector to bind together and with a single voice show the world that Greece is a very competitive destination, and one that offers visitors the best of everything as well as one of the world’s safest holiday destinations.

We urge all tourism professionals to take the opportunity Philoxenia offers the Greek tourism industry to open a new page in cooperation.

Our confederation members hope this will not only be the first step towards a new form of cooperation among professionals but also just the beginning of a balanced and productive partnership between public and private sectors.
