Greece’s tourism receipts to rise by 5% in 2026

  • 8 March, 26

Based on existing bookings, tourism market estimates for 2026 suggest that the positive trend after last year’s record figures is set to continue.

This year, tourism receipts are expected to increase by at least 5%, barring any unforeseen economic and geopolitical developments.

If this scenario holds, the amounts inflowing from Greece’s top five markets will be even higher than in 2025. In particular, receipts from Germany are expected to approach €4 billion.

Similarly, travel receipts from the United Kingdom are estimated to reach almost €3.9 billion. Revenues from the US are forecast to reach €1.78 billion, while receipts from both France and Italy are expected to reach around €1.36 billion each.

Overall, the picture of these traditional markets remains particularly stable, constituting the main pillar for this year’s revenues.

Significant expectations are also created in the medium term by the opening of new markets such as India, with which direct air links have already been launched.
