I took a snippet at random from your Athens travel
page, the one you put up here (against TOS)

Up came two completely different sites with the very same text. Clearly, somebody is scraping somebody
I'm not saying you are a scraper (how can I know?) but this might explain your loss of position in the SERPs.

If I were you, I would do likewise. Take random snippets of text from your original material,
(assuming it is indeed original) and see where else it appears.

Either you will learn who is copying your stuff, or you will be reminded where you got it in the first place.
Either way, you will have a better clue what happened to your Google SERPs. - Larry
