Airbnb: These are the popular destinations in Greece for summer

The Olympic Games in Paris and the European Football Championship in Germany attract thousands of travelers, Airbnb data shows.

With the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games just around the corner, visitors from all over the world are trying to get a front-row seat to the event.

Although Paris is the most searched city worldwide on Airbnb this summer, cities like Lille, Versailles and Lyon are also very popular thanks to the strategic decision to hold the Games across France.

List page views during the Games period are 11 times higher on average in French host cities and surrounding areas compared to the previous year.

With the European Football Championship kicking off at ten sites across Germany in June, three of the host cities – Dortmund, Munich and Stuttgart – have emerged as popular destinations for visitors around the world this summer.
