Athens-based inbound travel agency Yalos Tours promoted Greek products and destinations for 2023 during the three-day FestiVITAS trade show held in Mulhouse, France, earlier this month.

Specializing in the French-speaking market, Yalos Tours joined forces with the chambers of Fthiotida, Evia, Viotia and Fokida as well as with producers from Greece to offer some 28,500 FestiVITAS participants and visitors a taste of Greece and to introduce them to new lesser-known destinations in Central Greece and Eastern Halkidiki, and on Crete, Evia and Skyros islands.

Headed by Christos Panaretou, Yalos Tours caters mainly to travelers from the regions of Alsace, Germany and Switzerland.

Speaking during a press conference on the sidelines of the expo, Panaretou said Alsatians love Greece and are often repeat visitors.

Besides getting a chance to sample fine Greek products including olive oil, cheese, honey, olives, and dried figs, expo participants also had the opportunity to experience Greek cuisine in action thanks to the participation of Greek chef Dina Nikolaou who teamed up with Bernard Bringel to create an interesting Greece-inspired menu.

Yalos Tours is active for over 25 years specializing in the French-speaking market offering individual and group travel plans and working with travel agents for bookings via its B2B platform.
