Greeks prefer foreign vacations because of rising prices at home, with €2.8 billion spent on foreign travel in 2024. Examples include a couple who chose Prague instead of the island of Tinos, and a family who opted for Tenerife instead of Corfu, saving €1,000. Also, high demand from foreign tourists and the modernization of infrastructure have driven up accommodation costs in Greece.
