Agrotourism
Agrotourism (rural tourism), recently developed in Greece, is a mild form of sustainable tourist development and multi-activity in the agricultural sector, especially by demanding tourists who are not satisfied with conventional forms of tourism and who are therefore seeking alternative experiences.
Agrotourism promotes the cultural heritage of each area, giving visitors the opportunity to get acquainted with the nature and everyday rural life as well as the local customs and traditions, all without altering the character of the countryside. At the same time agrotourism supports the sustainable development of the country side by mobilizing all the productive and creative forces of the area.
In Greece many businesses throughout the country offer agrotourism programs in the form of agrotourist catering and recreation centers, travel agencies that organize and implement programs offering outdoor activities and excursions of ecotourism and cultural interests, farms, businesses producing traditional products and popular art workshops.
Wine tourism has been also developing in Greece, in regions like Crete, the Aegean islands and Central Greece, although the more organized wine tourism is found in Northern Greece through the program Wine Roads. This program organized by the Wines of North Greece Organization, suggests to the visitor to follow a carefully selected route, passing through the most picturesque areas of a viniculture zone and visit select wine-producing units, sample local wines accompanied by the traditional degustation of the region and explore the traditional settlements, archaeological site, etc.
