We've set up the album for 2017, which BTW was a record year for Greece's tourist arrivals, now it is over to YOU!

Check it out here

The rules are simple:


Everyone can enter! 

All it takes is a photo that you have taken yourself, anytime, anywhere in Greece that we can add to the album so that people can vote. 

Maximum number of entries per person is 3. 

Send us the photo(s)you would like to enter in the competition either by emailing us directly or by clicking on our Facebook Page, liking it and sending your photo(s) to us via our Facebook Message facility. 

You can send in your favourite photos of Greece until the closing date for entries - Oxi Day, Saturday 28 October 2017. After that voting begins in earnest!

Photo of the Day: Global Greek Chef Maria Loi Loves Greece... and it Shows, even in New York!

Η αγαπημένη μας Μαρία Λόη αγαπάει την Ελλάδα...και το δείχνει!

It's snowing heavily in New York and as our amazing Global Greek Chef Maria Loi walked past the winter wonderland near the New York Hilton earlier today she couldn't resist the temptation to advertise
not her restaurant, or her book, 
but her homeland, and ours, 
G R E E C E
on the snow covered cars!
 
  
Bravo Maria mas! 
 

Like us, you love Greece... and it shows! 


  and because you didn't advertise yourself, 
we will do it for you...

Don't forget...
