I would say what do I owe the honor of the visit is correct . We may say that in English.

"How am I so honored by your visit!" or "to what do I owe the honor of this visit"

it´s a courtesy expression meaning something like:

How come I am honoured with your visit?

Sometimes it can be used sarcastically.

Literally it means To what do I ow the Honor but I think there has to be another phrase more accurate that has to be in the phrasebook. Maybe some English native.
