The number of Bulgarians celebrating New Year's Eve in Greece is much higher than last year. Bulgarian tourists who have chosen to celebrate the coming 2023 in Greece are enjoying the last day of the year with a cup of coffee on the beach and some shopping, reports Katya Peeva, BNR correspondent. 

For more than a week now, restaurant, tavern and nightclub owners in Greece have not been accepting reservations for New Year's Eve. In expensive hotels, New Year's Eve packages are between 450 and 550 euros per person and are all sold out. Restaurant owners explain that after two years of restrictions and bans, people can't wait to celebrate.
