A representative of one of the destinations that stood out in the top three, namely the new mayor of Eastern Samos, Paris Papageorgiou, said: "Samos has that 'yeast' of characteristics that differentiate it on the international stage. The new distinction in the Dutch market is yet another indication of the destination's uniqueness and popularity. Our concern will be to introduce to the travelling public from Greece and abroad all aspects of Eastern Samos, highlighting, in particular, the authenticity, gastronomy, history, culture, alternative activities, natural beauty and quality of services as a combination that offers travellers an unrepeatable experience."
