The natural beauties of Samos and the range of access possibilities from Turkey have recently been highlighted by the neighboring country’s popular media in the context of the activation of the express tourist visa to the islands of the Eastern Aegean.
In a recent extensive tribute to the island, the informative and entertainment website alem.com.tr states that “Samos is one of the most impressive Greek islands with blue-green beaches, green landscapes and historical beauties.
Birthplace of Pythagoras
As the birthplace of the timeless philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras, Samos was one of the most important cultural and scientific centers of antiquity that Turkish travelers deserve to visit today.”
At the same time, CNN Turk and the Milliyet newspaper are calling on the island of Pythagoras, providing a range of information about sea and air access from cities in Turkey.
What the mayor of the island said
“There are already thousands of tourists arriving in Samos from the neighboring country who immediately rushed to take advantage of the new possibilities in order to experience the travel experiences that our island offers. In this context, the Turkish market can contribute to the lengthening of the tourist season, but also to the strengthening of tourism professionals, especially at the beginning of the season”, said the mayor of Eastern Samos Paris Papageorgiou”.
“Samos has a multifaceted tourist “product” that can satisfy the preferences of the traveler from Turkey. The difference in the level of Turkish tourist arrivals on the island is now noticeable after the activation of the Greek-Turkish agreement on the special tourist visa”, adds the vice-mayor of West Samos Tourism, Evangelos Marnezos.
