Greece named best country in the world by CN Traveller

Readers of the popular and highly regarded Condé Nast Traveller UK magazine have just voted Greece as the best country in the world to visit in the 2016 edition of the Readers’ Travel Awards.

The current refugee and economic crisis in Greece has not deterred jet setters from making their way to the Mediterranean- with tourists well aware of the fact that Greece is still at the top when it comes to guaranteed warm weather, pristine sea water,  breathtaking sunsets and delicious cuisine.

Greece's tourism office is predicting a record year for 2016, with arrivals estimated to reach 25 million and 27.5 million including cruise ship passengers.

Coming in at second place is neighbouring country Italy and third place has been awarded to the United States.
