Greece has received significant recognition in the U.S. travel market, winning prestigious awards from two influential American travel publications. These accolades highlight the country’s enduring appeal to key demographics, from millennials to multigenerational families.
For the sixth consecutive year, Greece was named “Favorite Country” at the 11th The Trazees Awards. The Trazees Awards, hosted by Trazee Travel, are a direct reflection of the preferences of millennial travelers, a highly sought-after and influential demographic in the tourism industry.
Furthermore, at the 8th Wherever Awards, Greece was honored as “Best Family-Friendly Multigenerational Destination” for the third consecutive year. The country also secured the position of the second most popular “Family-Friendly International Destination”, just behind Spain. The Wherever Awards are a respected endorsement from family travelers, a market segment that includes diverse age ranges and travel budgets.

Both Trazee Travel and Wherever Family are online publications of FXExpress Publications, a company closely associated with the well-regarded Global Traveler magazine. The winners are determined by thousands of readers who cast their votes online, making the awards a valuable indicator of consumer sentiment and industry preference.
The official awards ceremony for both The Trazees and Wherever Awards will be held on August 19, 2025, in Los Angeles. The Consul General of Greece in Los Angeles, Christina Valassopoulou, will accept the awards on behalf of Greece and the Greek National Tourism Organization.
